Illustrative Report of the Directors and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017
This set of illustrative financial statements is for a fictitious company listed on the Main Board (“MB”) of The Stock
Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”). For a company listed on the Growth Enterprise Market (“GEM”)
of the Stock Exchange, equivalent disclosure requirements are also included on the left-hand side of pages 1 to 160 for
reference. The applicable disclosure requirements under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance are also included on the
left-hand side pages. Certain disclosure exemptions (not highlighted in these financial statements) are available under the
Hong Kong Companies Ordinance for a private company.
As Hong Kong Listed Limited has a 31 December year end, these financial statements disclose the effects of changes in
accounting policies as a result of the revised Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) which are first effective
for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2017. These illustrative financial statements are “general purpose”
financial statements and do not attempt to show all possible accounting and disclosure requirements, nor do they include
particular disclosures required by the Stock Exchange or other regulatory bodies for specialist industries, such as banks
(see Appendix 15 of the Listing Rules and the Guideline on the Application of the Banking (Disclosure) Rules issued by the
Hong Kong Monetary Authority), financial conglomerates and insurance companies.

Narrative shown on the left-hand side of each page indicates the applicable HKFRS paragraphs, the Hong Kong
Companies Ordinance and rules of the Stock Exchange or other regulatory bodies that describe the specific disclosure
requirements. In certain cases, for the purpose of this document, the requirements have been paraphrased. Reference
should be made to the source for the complete text. The information shown may not present every applicable disclosure
requirement.
Certain additional illustrative disclosures which are not applicable to Hong Kong Listed Limited are highlighted in grey on
the right-hand pages for reference.
A listed company needs to comply with the minimum disclosure requirements as specified in Appendix 16 of the Listing
Rules (GEM Rules Chapter 18). A listed company which is not incorporated in Hong Kong is also required to comply with
the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and subsidiary legislation (A16(28)) (GEM Rules 24.20
and 25.32). This publication does not include all the disclosures required by the Listing Rules and the Hong Kong
Companies Ordinance.
The disclosures presented in these illustrative financial statements are examples only. Actual disclosures should reflect
the particular circumstances of the entity concerned. In addition, there may be more than one way in which disclosures
can be made whilst still complying with HKFRSs or other requirements. In case of doubt as to the disclosure requirements,
reference should be made to the relevant source.
(iii)
HKAS 1 refers to a “statement of financial position” and a “statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income” or a
“statement of profit or loss”. HKAS 1 allows an entity to use titles for the statements other than those used in HKAS 1. For
example, an entity may use the title “statement of comprehensive income” instead of “statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income” (HKAS 1.10).
Concerning the use of the terms “Mainland China” and “People's Republic of China/PRC” in the main body (right-hand
pages) of these financial statements, the term “People's Republic of China/PRC” has only been used when referring to a
legal status, such as for a company “established/registered in the PRC”. Elsewhere in the financial statements, the term
“Mainland China” has been used, as in “the subsidiary's operations are in Mainland China”. The purpose of this wording is
to differentiate between Hong Kong and Mainland China, as both form part of the PRC. (Where the left-hand page
disclosure requirements refer to the “PRC”, this has been left as it is, to accurately reflect the wording of the source
document.)
(iv)
Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards
The term HKFRSs is defined in the Preface to Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards to include “all Hong Kong
Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (“HKASs”) and Interpretations approved by the Council
of the HKICPA and currently in issue”. Therefore, when the financial statements are described as complying with HKFRSs,
this means that they comply with the entire hierarchy of pronouncements issued by the HKICPA, including HKASs, Hong
Kong Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations.

Principal activities business review (continued)
Commentary: (continued) 2. Schedule 5 to the Companies Ordinance requires that a directors’ report for a financial year
must contain a business review. According to Question A8 of the HKICPA’s Q&A “Location of business review”, this requirement can be met by including a cross reference in the directors’ report to where this review is located if it is included elsewhere in the annual report. For example, there are many similarities between the requirements already in A16(28)(2)(d) and A16(32)/GEM18.07A(2)(d) and 18.41 for companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to include a Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) disclosures in their annual reports and the prescribed contents of a business review set out in Schedule 5. The requirements of Schedule 5 can be met by including a cross reference in the directors’ report to where the MD&A is found, provided that: a. the cross reference is clear and it is clearly stated that the cross referenced part of the
annual report forms part of the directors’ report b. the discussion and analysis found in that MD&A is sufficient to meet the minimum content
requirements of Schedule 5 As a minimum, the MD&A disclosures should cover the points in A16(32)(1)-(12)/GEM18.41 and include an explanation of the basis on which the issuer generates or preserves value over the longer term (the business model) and the strategy for delivering the issuer’s objectives. A16(52)/GEM18.83 also provides a list of recommended additional MD&A disclosures. If the information required in A16(32)/GEM18.41 and recommended additional disclosures has been disclosed in a business review in the directors’ report as set out in A16(28)/GEM18.07A, no additional MD&A disclosure in respect of A16(32)/GEM18.41 is required
3. The information about impending developments or matters in the course of negotiation is not required to be included in a business review if the disclosure would, in the directors’ opinion, be seriously prejudicial to the company’s interests
4. Schedule 5 has effect in relation of a directors’ report required to be prepared under section 388(2) as if a reference to the company in a business review were a reference to the company and the subsidiary undertakings included in the annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year
5. “Key performance indicators” in Schedule 5 to the Companies Ordinance means factors by reference to which the development, performance or position of the company’s business can be measured effectively
6. A business review prepared and presented for the purposes of compliance with Schedule 5 should be consistent with the following guiding principles: a. the review should set out an analysis of the business through the eyes of the board of
directors b. the scope of the review should be consistent with the scope of the financial statements c. the review should complement as well as supplement the financial statements, in order to
enhance the overall corporate disclosure d. the review should be understandable e. the review should be balanced and neutral, dealing even-handedly with both good and
bad aspects Refer to the Accounting Bulletin 5 Guidance for the Preparation and Presentation of a Business Review under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance Cap. 622 issued by the HKICPA for further guidance for the preparation of a business review

The letter is available on the website of the Stock Exchange. In the letter, the Listing Division recommended issuers to disclose, where appropriate, the following information in annual reports for the financial year in which new capital is raised and in subsequent years until the proceeds from capital raising have been substantially applied: 1. details of the application of the proceeds from capital raising (by major item) and, if any change

Purchase, redemption or sale of listed securities of the Company (continued)
The purchase of the Company's shares during the year was effected by the directors, pursuant to the mandate from
shareholders received at the last annual general meeting, with a view to benefiting shareholders as a whole by

Except as disclosed above, neither the Company, nor any of its subsidiaries purchased, redeemed or sold any of the
Company's listed securities during the year.
Pre-emptive rights (applicable only to overseas and PRC established companies)
There are no provisions for pre-emptive rights under the Company's bye-laws/articles of association or the laws of
(name of country of incorporation) which would oblige the Company to offer new shares on a pro rata basis to existing
shareholders.
Distributable reserves
At 31 December 2017, the Company's reserves available for distribution, calculated in accordance with the provisions
of sections 291, 297 and 299 of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, amounted to HK$58,494,000, of which
HK$6,510,000 has been proposed as a final dividend for the year. In addition, the amount of HK$95,678,000
previously included in the Company's share premium account may be distributed in the form of fully paid bonus shares.

suppliers accounted for less than 30% of the total purchases for the year.
None of the directors of the Company or any of their associates or any shareholders (which, to the best knowledge of
the directors, own more than 5% of the Company's share capital) had any beneficial interest in the Group's five largest
customers.

Charitable contributions
If a company (not being the wholly owned subsidiary of a company incorporated in Hong Kong) has no subsidiary undertakings and has in the financial year made donations for charitable or other purposes to a total amount of not less than $10,000, a directors’ report for the financial year must state the total amount of those donations If a company (not being the wholly owned subsidiary of a company incorporated in Hong Kong) has subsidiary undertakings and the company has in a financial year made donations (whether on its own or by its subsidiary undertakings) for charitable or other purposes to a total amount of not less than $10,000, a directors’ report for the financial year must state the total amount of those donations
C(DR)R.4(1) C(DR)R.4(2)
Major customers and suppliers
A listed issuer shall include information in respect of its major customers (meaning, other than in relation to consumer goods or services, the ultimate customer, and in relation to consumer goods or services the ultimate wholesaler or retailer as the case may be) and its major suppliers (meaning the ultimate suppliers of items which are not of a capital nature) as follows: 1. a statement of the percentage of purchases attributable to the largest supplier 2. a statement of the percentage of purchases attributable to the 5 largest suppliers combined 3. a statement of the percentage of revenue from sales of goods or rendering of services
attributable to the largest customer 4. a statement of the percentage of revenue from sales of goods or rendering of services
attributable to the 5 largest customers combined 5. a statement of the interests of any of the directors; their associates; or any shareholder (which
to the knowledge of the directors own more than 5% of the number of issued shares of the listed issuer) in the suppliers or customers disclosed under Appendix 16(31)(1) to Appendix 16(31)(4) of the Listing Rules above or if there are no such interests a statement to that effect
6. in the event that the percentage which would fall to be disclosed under Appendix 16(31)(2) of the Listing Rules above is less than 30, a statement of that fact shall be given and the information required in Appendix 16(31)(1), Appendix 16(31)(2) and Appendix 16(31)(5) of the Listing Rules (in respect of suppliers) may be omitted
7. in the event that the percentage which would fall to be disclosed under Appendix 16(31)(4) of the Listing Rules above is less than 30, a statement of that fact shall be given and the information required in Appendix 16(31)(3), Appendix 16(31)(4) and Appendix 16(31)(5) of the Listing Rules (in respect of customers) may be omitted
Commentary: 1. In relation to consumer goods, references to customers are to the ultimate wholesaler or
retailer, except when the listed issuer’s business incorporates the wholesaling or retailing operation. In all other cases references to customers are to ultimate customer
2. References to suppliers are primarily to those who provide goods or services which are specific to a listed issuer’s business and which are required on a regular basis to enable the listed issuer to continue to supply or service its customers. Suppliers of goods and services which are freely available from a range of suppliers at similar prices or which are otherwise freely available (such as utilities) are excluded. In particular, it is recognised that an obligation on listed issuers who are providers of financial services (such as banks and insurance companies) to give information about suppliers would be of limited or no value, and there is therefore no disclosure requirement in respect of suppliers to such listed issuers

2. the statement required by Appendix 16(13)(1) of the Listing Rules above must specify the company in which the interests or short positions are held, the class to which those securities belong and the number of such securities held and particulars should be given of the extent of any duplication which occurs.

Share option scheme (continued)
In respect of options granted during the financial year/period over listed securities, the listed issuer is encouraged to disclose in its annual report the value of options granted to participants set out in Rule 17.07(i) to (v) of the Listing Rules during the financial year, and the accounting policy adopted for the share options. Where the listed issuer considers that disclosure of value of options granted during the financial year is not appropriate, it must state the reason for such non-disclosure in its annual report In respect of the disclosure of the value of options in the annual report, the listed issuer should use the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the binomial model or a comparable generally accepted methodology to calculate the value of options. The listed issuer should also disclose the following information: 1. a description of the model and significant assumptions used to estimate the value of the
option, taking into account factors such as risk-free interest rate, expected life, expected volatility and expected dividend, if applicable: a. where the calculation of the value is referable to a risk-free interest rate, such rate should
be the rate prevailing on debt securities issued by the state, such as the Exchange Fund Notes in the case of Hong Kong based entities
b. the listed issuer should set out the expected volatility used in calculating the value, with an explanation of any deviations from the historical volatility of the securities. The listed issuer may choose the period of time that it considers appropriate for calculating such historical volatility. However, such period may not be less than one year or, where securities have been listed for less than one year from the date of commencement of dealings in such securities, such period is to be from the date of commencement of such dealings to the date of the calculation
c. expected dividends should be based on historical dividends, with an explanation of any adjustments made for publicly available information indicating that future performance is reasonably expected to differ from past performance
2. the measurement date which should be the date on which the options were granted 3. the treatment of forfeiture prior to the expiry date 4. a warning statement with regard to the subjectivity and uncertainty of the values of options to
the effect that such values are subject to a number of assumptions and with regard to the limitation of the model
5. if, at the end of a financial year of a company, there subsists an equity-linked agreement entered into by the company, a directors’ report for the financial year must state any monetary or other consideration that the company has received or will receive under the agreement

Directors' rights to acquire shares or debentures
If, at the end of the financial year, there subsist arrangements to which the company or a specified undertaking of the company is a party, and whose objects are, or one of whose objects is, to enable directors of the company to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in, or debentures of, the company or any other body corporate, or at any time in the financial year there have subsisted arrangements to which the company or a specified undertaking of the company was a party, and whose objects were, or one of whose objects was, to enable directors of the company to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in, or debentures of, the company or any other body corporate, a directors’ report for a financial year must contain a statement explaining the effect of the arrangements and giving the names of the persons who at any time in that financial year were directors of the company and held, or whose nominees held, shares or debentures acquired under the arrangements Commentary: Refer to page (8) for definition of specified undertaking

HONG KONG LISTED LIMITED
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
Share option scheme (continued)
Notes to the table of share options outstanding during the year:
* The vesting period of the share options is from the date of grant until the commencement of the exercise period.
** The exercise price of the share options is subject to adjustment in the case of rights or bonus issues, or other
similar changes in the Company's share capital.
*** The weighted average closing price of the Company’s shares immediately before the exercise dates of the
share options was HK$0.338 per share. The closing price of the Company’s shares immediately before the
date on which the options were granted during the year was HK$0.32 per share.
The directors have estimated the values of the share options granted during the year, calculated using the binomial
option pricing model as at the date of grant of the options:
Number of options Theoretical value
Grantee granted during the year of share options
HK$
Mr. A 5,000,000 257,000
Mr. B 5,000,000 257,000

Other employees 36,800,000 1,891,000
Prosperous Future Limited 200,000 10,000 __________ _________
54,500,000 2,800,000 __________ _________ __________ _________
# The number of share options granted during the year to Mr. T, a director of a major operating subsidiary of the
Company, exceeded the individual limit of 1% of the shares of the Company then in issue. The grant of the
excess 1,000,000 share options over the limit is therefore subject to approval by the shareholders at the
forthcoming annual general meeting. Accordingly, the fair value of the excess options was estimated for the
purpose of recognising the services received during the period from the service commencement date (which is
the date when Mr. T began to render the services necessary to become entitled to the share options) to the end
of the reporting period. This fair value will be revised once the grant of the excess options is approved by the
shareholders based on the data available at that date.
The binomial option pricing model is a generally accepted method of valuing options. The significant assumptions used
in the calculation of the values of the share options were (description of assumptions, including those relating to factors
such as the risk-free interest rate, expected life, expected volatility and expected dividend. Such description should be
consistent with that disclosed in note 39). The measurement dates used in the valuation calculations were the dates on
which the options were granted.
The values of share options calculated using the binomial model are subject to certain fundamental limitations, due to
the subjective nature of and uncertainty relating to a number of assumptions of the expected future performance input
to the model, and certain inherent limitations of the model itself. The value of an option varies with different variables of
certain subjective assumptions. Any change to the variables used may materially affect the estimation of the fair value
of an option.
As at 31 December 2017, the Company had 70,500,000 share options outstanding under the Scheme. Should they be
fully exercised, the Company will receive HK$22,160,000 (before issue expenses). The fair value of these unexercised
options measured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy (note 2.4 to the financial statements) amounted to
HK$3,622,000.
Save as disclosed above, at no time during the year were rights to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares
in or debentures of the Company granted to any of the directors or their respective spouses or minor children, or were
any such rights exercised by them; or was the Company, its holding company, or any of its subsidiaries or fellow
subsidiaries a party to any arrangement to enable the directors to acquire such rights in any other body corporate.

Substantial shareholders' and other persons' interests and short positions in shares and underlying shares (continued)
For other persons whose interests are recorded (or, in the case of a new listing, are required to be recorded) in the register required to be kept under section 336 of the SFO, the statements should show details of the following matters as recorded in such register: 1.

agreement b. short positions under equity derivatives showing separately for listed and unlisted equity
derivatives, interests in underlying shares of the entity pursuant to: i. physically settled equity derivatives ii. cash settled equity derivatives

a. The statements should include the percentage which the aggregate short position in shares represents to the issued voting shares of the issuer
b. A short position arises: i. where the person is the borrower of shares under a securities borrowing and
lending agreement, or has an obligation to deliver the underlying shares to another person who has lent shares
ii. where the person is the holder, writer or issuer of any equity derivatives, by virtue of which the person A. has a right to require another person to take the underlying shares of the
equity derivatives B. is under an obligation to deliver the underlying shares of the equity derivatives
to another person C. has a right to receive from another person money if the price of the underlying
shares declines D. has a right to avoid a loss if the price of the underlying shares declines

When an issuer enters into a continuing connected transaction not falling under Rule 14A.73 of the Listing Rules, the listed issuer’s independent non-executive directors must review the continuing connected transactions every year and confirm in the annual report whether the transactions have been entered into: 1. in the ordinary and usual course of business of the listed issuer’s group 2. on normal commercial terms or better 3. according to the agreement governing them on terms that are fair and reasonable and in
the interests of the listed issuer’s shareholders as a whole
Ch14A.55 /GEM20.53 -(1) -(2) -(3)
When an issuer enters into a continuing connected transaction not falling under Rule 14A.73 of the Listing Rules, each year the auditors must provide a letter to the listed issuer’s board of directors confirming whether anything has come to their attention that causes them to believe that the continuing connected transactions: 1. have not been approved by the listed issuer’s board of directors 2. were not, in all material respects, in accordance with the pricing policies of the listed
issuer’s group if the transactions involve provision of goods or services by the listed issuer’s group
3. were not entered into, in all material respects, in accordance with the relevant agreement governing the transactions
4. have exceeded the cap

Rule 14A.71(6)(b) of the Listing Rules requires that the listed issuer’s board of directors must state in the annual report whether its auditor has confirmed the matters stated in Rule 14A.56 of the Listing Rules. In this respect, given the nature of the engagement and for better clarity as to the work performed with reference to Practice Note 740 “Auditor’s Letter on Continuing Connected Transactions under the Hong Kong Listing Rules”, generally a suitable disclosure in this respect would be for the listed issuer to include appropriate references in the annual report to the work performed by the auditor
PN740.102
When the listed issuer discloses in its annual report information of any related party transaction under the accounting standards for preparing its annual financial statements, it must specify whether the transaction is a connected transaction or continuing connected transaction (as the case may be) under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules and whether it has complied with the requirements in Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules

Independent auditor’s report
To the members of Hong Kong Listed Limited
(Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Hong Kong Listed Limited (the “Company”) and its
subsidiaries (the “Group”) set out on pages 22 to 158, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position
as at 31 December 2017, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then
ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of
the Group as at 31 December 2017, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for
the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong
Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the
Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing (“HKSAs”) issued by the HKICPA. Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the
consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the
HKICPA’s Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the
consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in
that context.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial
statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance
of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial
statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below,
provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
[Description of each key audit matter in accordance with HKSA 701.]
Other information included in the Annual Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Annual Report, other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial
statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the
work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Independent auditor’s report (continued)
To the members of Hong Kong Listed Limited
(Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)
Responsibilities of the directors for the consolidated financial statements
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a
true and fair view in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA and the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and
for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors of the Company are responsible for assessing the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors of the Company either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors of the Company are assisted by the Audit Committee in discharging their responsibilities for overseeing
the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
opinion. Our report is made solely to you, as a body, in accordance with section 405 of the Hong Kong Companies
Ordinance, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person
for the contents of this report.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Group’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on
the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future
events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Independent auditor’s report (continued)
To the members of Hong Kong Listed Limited
(Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements (continued)
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit
opinion.
We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit
and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be
thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance
in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We
describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or
when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because
the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.

General drafting considerations – comparative amounts
A complete set of financial statements comprises comparative information in respect of the preceding period as specified in HKAS 1.38 and HKAS 1.38A Except when HKFRSs permit or require otherwise, an entity shall present comparative information in respect of the preceding period for all amounts reported in the current period’s financial statements
HKAS1.10(ea) HKAS1.38
Commentary: An entity may present comparative information in addition to the minimum comparative financial statements required by HKFRSs, as long as that information is prepared in accordance with HKFRSs. This comparative information may consist of one or more statements referred to in HKAS 1.10, but need not comprise a complete set of financial statements. When this is the case, the entity shall present related note information for those additional statements Refer also to pages (155) to (156) for further details about disclosure requirements for comparative amounts
HKAS1.38C
General drafting considerations – materiality, offsetting and consistency
An entity shall present separately each material class of similar items HKAS1.29 Some HKFRSs specify information that is required to be included in the financial statements, which include the notes. An entity need not provide a specific disclosure required by an HKFRS if the information resulting from that disclosure is not material. This is the case even if the HKFRS contains a list of specific requirements or describes them as minimum requirements. An entity shall also consider whether to provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in HKFRS is insufficient to enable users of financial statements to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance
HKAS1.31
An entity shall not offset income and expenses, unless required or permitted by an HKFRS
HKAS1.32
An entity shall retain the presentation and classification of items in the financial statements from one period to the next unless (i) it is apparent, following a significant change in the nature of the entity’s operations or a review of its financial statements, that another presentation or classification would be more appropriate or (ii) an HKFRS requires a change in presentation
HKAS1.45
(21)
Statement of profit or loss or statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income An entity may present a single statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, with profit or loss and other comprehensive income presented in two sections. The sections shall be presented together, with the profit or loss section presented first followed directly by the other comprehensive income section. An entity may present the profit or loss section in a separate statement of profit or loss. If so, the separate statement of profit or loss shall immediately precede the statement presenting comprehensive income, which shall begin with profit or loss
HKAS1.10A
Commentary:
For illustrative purposes, Hong Kong Listed Limited adopts the two-statement approach while the single statement approach has been included in Appendix 1. Therefore, the term “statement of profit or loss” is used throughout the notes to the illustrative financial statements and in the auditor’s report. Where the single statement approach is adopted, the references should be tailored (e.g., to profit or loss instead of to the statement of profit or loss)
Presentation of statement of profit or loss/statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income
A complete set of financial statements comprises a statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income
HKAS1.10(b)
An entity shall present, as a minimum, two statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and two separate statements of profit or loss (if presented), and related notes
HKAS1.38A
An entity shall present additional line items (including by disaggregating the line items listed in HKAS 1.82), headings and subtotals in the statement(s) presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income when such presentation is relevant to an understanding of the entity’s financial performance
HKAS1.85
When an entity presents subtotals in accordance with HKAS 1.85, those subtotals shall: 1. be comprised of line items made up of amounts recognised and measured in accordance
with HKFRS 2. be presented and labelled in a manner that makes the line items that constitute the subtotal
clear and understandable 3. be consistent from period to period, in accordance with HKAS 1.45 4. not be displayed with more prominence than the subtotals and totals required in HKFRS for
the statement(s) presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income An entity shall present the line items in the statement(s) presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income that reconcile any subtotals presented in accordance with HKAS 1.85 with the subtotals or totals required in HKFRS for such statement(s) An entity includes additional line items in the statement(s) presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income and it amends the descriptions used and the ordering of items when this is necessary to explain the elements of financial performance. An entity considers factors including materiality and the nature and function of the items of income and expense
HKAS1.85A -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) HKAS1.85B HKAS1.86
An entity shall not present any items of income or expense as extraordinary items, in the statement(s) presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income or in the notes
HKAS1.87
An entity shall present an analysis of expenses recognised in profit or loss using a classification based on either their nature or their function within the entity, whichever provides information that is reliable and more relevant
HKAS1.99
An entity shall cross-reference each item in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income to any related information in the notes

Notes on terminology
1. Although this Standard uses the terms ‘other comprehensive income’, ‘profit or loss’ and ‘total comprehensive income’, an entity may use other terms to describe the totals as long as the meaning is clear. For example, an entity may use the term ‘net income’ to describe profit or loss
2. An entity may use titles for the statements other than those used in HKAS 1. For example, an entity may use the title ‘statement of comprehensive income’ instead of ‘statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income’
3. An entity may elect to disclose the results of operating activities, or a similar line item, even though this term is not defined. The entity should ensure that the amount disclosed is representative of activities that would normally be regarded as ‘operating’
Commentary: 1. For illustrative purposes, except for terms related to earnings or loss per share (where HKAS
33 continues to use the term “equity holder”), Hong Kong Listed Limited adopts the term “owner” instead of “equity holder” to align with the terminology used in HKAS 1. However, alternative terminology may also be used as long as the meaning is clear
2. The term “parent” is that used in HKAS 1 and refers to the parent of the reporting group (i.e., the “Company” in the context of consolidated financial statements). An entity may alternatively use the wording “profit or loss attributable to owners of the Company” in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, or the separate statement of profit or loss (if presented); or “equity attributable to owners of the Company” in the statement of financial position
HKAS1.8 HKAS1.10 HKAS1.BC56
Items presented in the statement of profit or loss/statement of comprehensive income
In addition to items required by other HKFRSs, the profit or loss section or the statement of profit or loss shall include line items that present the following amounts for the period: 1. revenue 2. finance costs 3. share of the profit or loss of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity
method 4. tax expense 5. a single amount for the total of discontinued operations (see HKFRS 5)
This comprises the total of: a. the post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations; and b. the post-tax gain or loss recognised on the measurement to fair value less costs to sell;
or c. on disposal of the assets or disposal group(s) constituting the discontinued operation
HKAS1.82 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) -(ea) HKFRS5.33(a)
Profit or loss for the period attributable to: 1. non-controlling interests 2. owners of the parent
HKFRS10.B94& HKAS1.81B(a) -(i) -(ii)
The tax expense (income) related to profit or loss from ordinary activities shall be presented as part of profit or loss in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income
HKAS12.77
Earnings per share
An entity shall present in the statement of comprehensive income basic and diluted earnings per share for profit or loss from continuing operations attributable to the ordinary equity holders of the parent entity and for profit or loss attributable to the ordinary equity holders of the parent entity for the period for each class of ordinary shares that has a different right to share in profit for the period. An entity shall present basic and diluted earnings per share with equal prominence for all periods presented
HKAS33.66
If an entity presents items of profit or loss in a separate statement as described in HKAS 1.10A, it presents earnings per share only in that separate statement
HKAS33.4A
Dividends
Dividends are distributions to owners in their capacity as owners. The Board concluded that an entity should not present dividends in the statement of comprehensive income because that statement presents non-owner changes in equity
HKAS1.BC75
Commentary:
Dividends classified as an expense may be presented in the statement(s) of profit of loss and other comprehensive income either with interest on other liabilities or as a separate item
HKAS32.40
(23)
Items presented in the statement of comprehensive income
The other comprehensive income section shall present line items for the amounts for the period of: HKAS1.82A
1. items of other comprehensive income (excluding amounts in HKAS 1.82A(b)), classified by nature and grouped into those that, in accordance with other HKFRSs: a. will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and b. will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met
2. the share of the other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method, separated into the share of items that, in accordance with other HKFRSs: a. will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and b. will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met
The statement of profit or loss and comprehensive income shall present in addition to the profit or loss and other comprehensive income sections: 1. profit or loss 2. total other comprehensive income 3. comprehensive income for the period, being the total of profit or loss and other comprehensive Total comprehensive income for the period attributable to: 1. non-controlling interests 2. owners of the parent

An entity may present reclassification adjustments in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income or in the notes. An entity presenting reclassification adjustments in the notes presents the items of other comprehensive income after any related reclassification adjustments
HKAS1.94
Commentary: 1. The components of other comprehensive income include changes in revaluation surplus,
actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit plans, gains and losses arising from translating the financial statements of a foreign operation, gains and losses on remeasuring available-for-sale financial assets and the effective portion of gains and losses on hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge

HKAS1.10 -(a) -(f)
An entity shall present, as a minimum, two statements of financial position and related notes An entity shall present a third statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period in addition to the minimum comparative financial statements required in HKAS 1.38A if: 1. it applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement of items in

Classification of current versus non-current (continued) An entity shall classify a liability as current when at least one of the following is met: 1. it expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle 2. it holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading 3. the liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period it does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification An entity classifies its financial liabilities as current when they are due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, even if the original term was for a period longer than twelve months, and an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the financial statements are authorised for issue
HKAS1.69 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) HKAS1.72
Commentary: 1. The “held for trading” category in HKAS 39.9 is for measurement purposes and includes
financial assets and liabilities that may not be held primarily for trading purposes 2. A financial liability that is not held for trading purposes, such as a derivative that is not a
financial guarantee contract or a designated hedging instrument, should be presented as current or non-current on the basis of its settlement date. For example, derivatives that have a maturity of more than twelve months and are expected to be held for more than twelve months after the reporting period should be presented as non-current assets or liabilities
HKAS1.BC38B HKAS1.BC38C
3. If an entity expects, and has the discretion, to refinance or roll over an obligation for at least twelve months after the reporting period under an existing loan facility, it classifies the obligation as non-current, even if it would otherwise be due within a shorter period. However, when refinancing or rolling over the obligation is not at the discretion of the entity, the entity does not consider the potential to refinance the obligation and classifies the obligation as current
HKAS1.73
4. When an entity breaches a provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand, it classifies the liability as current, even if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the authorisation of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach

Presentation of the statement of changes in equity A complete set of financial statements includes a statement of changes in equity for the period HKAS1.10(c) An entity shall present, as a minimum, two statements of changes in equity and related notes
HKAS1.38A
An entity shall cross-reference each item in the statements of changes in equity to any related information in the notes Commentary:
The statement of changes in equity is normally presented using the “portrait” page layout. This has not been possible in these illustrative financial statements, because of the number of different reserve accounts illustrated
HKAS1.113
Items in the statement of changes in equity
An entity shall present a statement of changes in equity as required by HKAS 1.10. The statement of changes in equity includes the following information: 1. total comprehensive income for the period, showing separately the total amounts attributable
to owners of the parent and to non-controlling interests 2. for each component of equity, the effects of retrospective application or retrospective
restatement recognised in accordance with HKAS 8 3. for each component of equity, a reconciliation between the carrying amount at the beginning
and the end of the period, separately disclosing changes resulting from: a. profit or loss b. other comprehensive income c. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners, showing separately contributions by
and distributions to owners and changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries that not result in a loss of control
HKAS1.106 -(a) -(b) -(d)(i) -(d)(ii) -(d)(iii)

HKFRS12.18
The amount of transaction costs accounted for as a deduction from equity in the period is disclosed separately
HKAS32.39
Commentary: 1. For illustrative purposes, Hong Kong Listed Limited adopts the approach of presenting each
component of equity in the statement of changes in equity 2. An entity shall make no subsequent adjustment to total equity in respect of share options after
the vesting date. However, this requirement does not preclude the entity from recognising a transfer within equity, i.e., a transfer from one component of equity to another. For share options exercised, forfeited or lapsed that had previously vested, the attributable share option reserve would normally be transferred to the share premium or retained profits account after considering any requirements under the local statutory law

Presentation of the statement of cash flows A complete set of financial statements includes a statement of cash flows for the period HKAS1.10(d) An entity shall present, as a minimum, two statements of cash flows and related notes An entity shall cross-reference each item in the statements of cash flows to any related information in the notes
HKAS1.38A HKAS1.113
The statement of cash flows shall report cash flows during the period classified by operating, investing and financing activities
HKAS7.10
When a contract is accounted for as a hedge of an identifiable position, the cash flows of the contract are classified in the same manner as the cash flows of the position being hedged
HKAS7.16
Additional information may be relevant to users in understanding the financial position and liquidity of an entity. Disclosure of this information, together with a commentary by management, is encouraged
and may include: 1. the amount of undrawn borrowing facilities that may be available for future operating activities
and to settle capital commitments, indicating any restrictions on the use of these facilities 2. the aggregate amounts of the cash flows from each of operating, investing and financing
activities related to interests in joint ventures reported using proportionate consolidation 3. the aggregate amount of cash flows that represent increases in operating capacity separately
from those cash flows that are required to maintain operating capacity 4. the amount of the cash flows arising from the operating, investing and financing activities of
each reportable segment
HKAS7.50 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d)
Gross versus net presentation
An entity shall report separately major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments arising from investing and financing activities, except to the extent that cash flows described in HKAS 7.22 and HKAS 7.24 (related to a financial institution) are reported on a net basis
HKAS7.21
Cash flows arising from the following operating, investing or financing activities may be reported on a net basis: 1. cash receipts and payments on behalf of customers when the cash flows reflect the activities of
the customer rather than those of the entity 2. cash receipts and payments for items in which the turnover is quick, the amounts are large, and
the maturities are short
HKAS7.22 -(a) -(b)
Interest and dividends received and paid
Cash flows from interest and dividends received and paid shall each be disclosed separately. Each shall be classified in a consistent manner from period to period as either operating, investing or financing activities
HKAS7.31
The total amount of interest paid during a period is disclosed in the statement of cash flows whether it has been recognised as an expense in profit or loss or capitalised in accordance with HKAS 23
HKAS7.32
Interest paid and interest and dividends received may be classified as operating cash flows because they enter into the determination of profit or loss. Alternatively, interest paid and interest and dividends received may be classified as financing cash flows and investing cash flows respectively, because they are costs of obtaining financial resources or returns on investments
HKAS7.33
Dividends paid may be classified as a financing cash flow because they are a cost of obtaining financial resources. Alternatively, dividends paid may be classified as a component of cash flows from operating activities in order to assist users to determine the ability of an entity to pay dividends out of operating cash flows
HKAS7.34
Taxes
Cash flows arising from taxes on income shall be separately disclosed and shall be classified as cash flows from operating activities unless they can be identified with financing and investing activities
HKAS7.35
Taxes paid are usually classified as cash flows from operating activities. However, when it is practicable to identify the tax cash flow with an individual transaction that gives rise to cash flows that are classified as investing or financing activities the tax cash flow is classified as an investing or financing activity as appropriate. When tax cash flows are allocated over more than one class of activity, the total amount of taxes paid is disclosed
HKAS7.36
(32)
Reporting cash flows from operating activities An entity shall report cash flows from operating activities using either one of the following methods: 1. the direct method, whereby major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments are
disclosed 2. the indirect method, whereby profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-
cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows
HKAS7.18 -(a) -(b)
Cash flows from operating activities are primarily derived from the principal revenue-producing activities of the entity. Therefore, they generally result from the transactions and other events that enter into the determination of profit or loss. Examples of cash flows from operating activities are included in HKAS 7.14 Cash payments to manufacture or acquire assets held for rental to others and subsequently held for sale as described in HKAS 16.68A are cash flows from operating activities. The cash receipts from rents and subsequent sales of such assets are also cash flows from operating activities
HKAS7.14 HKAS7.14
An entity may hold securities and loans for dealing or trading purposes, in which case they are similar to inventory acquired specifically for resale. Therefore, cash flows arising from the purchase and sale of dealing or trading securities are classified as operating activities. Similarly, cash advances and loans made by financial institutions are usually classified as operating activities since they relate to the main revenue-producing activity of that entity

Reporting cash flows from investing activities Only expenditures that result in a recognised asset in the statement of financial position are eligible for classification as investing activities. Examples of cash flows arising from investing activities are included in HKAS 7.16
HKAS7.16
The aggregate cash flows arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses shall be presented separately and classified as investing activities
HKAS7.39

HKAS7.42
The purchase of assets and the receipt of related grants can cause major movements in the cash flow of an entity. For this reason and in order to show the gross investment in assets, such movements are often disclosed as separate items in the statement of cash flows regardless of whether or not the grant is deducted from the related asset for presentation purposes in the statement of financial position
HKAS20.28
Reporting cash flows from financing activities
Examples of cash flows arising from financing activities are included in HKAS 7.17 HKAS7.17 Cash flows arising from changes in ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control shall be classified as cash flows from financing activities, unless the subsidiary is held by an investment entity, as defined in HKFRS 10, and is required to be measured at fair value through profit or loss
HKAS7.42A
Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in foreign currency exchange
Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates are not cash flows. However, the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents held or due in a foreign currency is reported in the statement of cash flows in order to reconcile cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and the end of the period. This amount is presented separately from cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities and includes the differences, if any, had those cash flows been reported at end of period exchange rates

General drafting considerations for notes to the financial statements A complete set of financial statements includes notes, comprising significant accounting policies and other explanatory information
HKAS1.10(e)
An entity shall disclose, either in the statement of financial position or in the notes, further subclassifications of the line items presented, classified in a manner appropriate to the entity’s operations
HKAS1.77
An entity shall present a complete set of financial statements (including comparative information) at least annually. When an entity changes the end of its reporting period and presents financial statements for a period longer or shorter than one year, an entity shall disclose, in addition to the period covered by the financial statements: 1. the reason for using a longer or shorter period 2. the fact that amounts presented in the financial statements are not entirely comparable
HKAS1.36 -(a) -(b)
The notes to the financial statements shall: 1. present information about the basis of preparation of the financial statements and the specific
accounting policies used in accordance with HKAS 1.117 to 1.124 2. disclose the information required by HKFRSs that is not presented elsewhere in the financial
statements 3. provide information that is not presented elsewhere in the financial statements, but is relevant to
an understanding of any of them
HKAS1.112 -(a) -(b) -(c)
An entity shall, as far as practicable, present notes in a systematic manner. In determining a systematic manner, the entity shall consider the effect on the understandability and comparability of its financial statements. An entity shall cross-reference each item in the statements of financial position and in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, and in the statements of changes in equity and of cash flows to any related information in the notes
HKAS1.113
Examples of systematic ordering or grouping of the notes include: 1. giving prominence to the areas of its activities that the entity considers to be most relevant to an
understanding of its financial performance and financial position, such as grouping together information about particular operating activities
2. grouping together information about items measured similarly such as assets measured at fair value; or
3. following the order of the line items in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the statement of financial position, such as a. statement of compliance with HKFRSs b. significant accounting policies applied c. supporting information for items presented in the statements of financial position and in
the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and in the statements of changes in equity and of cash flows, in the order in which each statement and each line item is presented

Commentary: HKAS 1.113 requires the notes to financial statements to be presented in a systematic manner. HKAS 1.114 provides examples of different systematic ordering or grouping that preparers of financial statements may consider. The notes presented in these financial statements follow the approach in HKAS 1.114(c) by presenting them following the order in which items are presented in the primary financial statements. Entities should assess their specific circumstances and the preferences of the primary users of financial statements to decide on the structure of the notes to the financial statements.
(36)
General drafting considerations for notes to the financial statements (continued) An entity shall clearly identify each financial statement and the notes. In addition, an entity shall display the following information prominently, and repeat it when necessary for the information presented to be understandable: 1. the name of the reporting entity or other means of identification, and any change in that
information from the end of the preceding reporting period 2. whether the financial statements are of an individual entity or a group of entities 3. the date of the end of the reporting period or the period covered by the set of financial
statements or notes 4. the presentation currency 5. the level of rounding used in presenting amounts in the financial statements
HKAS1.51 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) -(e)
An entity shall disclose the following, if not disclosed elsewhere in information published with the financial statements: 1. the domicile and legal form of the entity, its country of incorporation and the address of its
registered office (or principal place of business, if different from the registered office) 2. a description of the nature of the entity’s operations and its principal activities 3. the name of the parent and the ultimate parent of the group
HKAS1.138 -(a) -(b) -(c)
An entity shall disclose its significant accounting policies comprising the measurement basis (or bases) used in preparing the financial statements Commentary: 1. These illustrative financial statements are specified financial statements as defined in S436(6).
Therefore, the guidance in AB 6 on the requirements concerning the publication of non-statutory accounts by a Hong Kong incorporated company is not included in these illustrative financial statements. Please refer to the guidance in AB 6 for the publication of non-statutory accounts by a Hong Kong incorporated company
2. If, in relation to any financial statements, compliance with sections 380(3) and (4) of the Companies Ordinance would be insufficient to give a true and fair view under sections 380(1) or (2) of the Companies Ordinance, the financial statements must contain all additional information necessary for that purpose
3. If, in relation to any financial statements, compliance with S380(3) or (4) of the Companies Ordinance would be inconsistent with a requirement to give a true and fair view under S380(1) or (2) of the Companies Ordinance, the financial statements must depart from S380(3) or (4) of the Companies Ordinance (as the case may be) to the extent that is necessary for it to give a true and fair view; and must contain the reasons for, and particulars and effect of, the departure
4. An example of the application of the true and fair view provisions under section 380(6) of the Companies Ordinance is a Hong Kong incorporated company which is an investment entity as defined by HKFRS 10 and does not consolidate its subsidiaries to comply with HKFRS 10, but ordinarily would be required to do so under the Companies Ordinance
HKAS1.117(a) S380(5) S380(6)
(37)
Corporate information If, at the end of a financial year, a company is the subsidiary of another undertaking, the company's financial statements for the financial year must contain, in the notes to the statements: 1. the name of the undertaking regarded by the directors as being the company's ultimate parent
undertaking; and 2. the following information relating to that undertaking as known to the directors:
a. if that undertaking is a body corporate, the country in which it is incorporated b. if that undertaking is not a body corporate, the address of its principal place of business
A listed issuer (whether or not it is incorporated in Hong Kong) shall include disclosures of particulars of its ultimate parent undertaking as required under Schedule 4 Part 1(3) of the Companies Ordinance in financial statements Relationship between a parent and its subsidiaries shall be disclosed irrespective of whether there have been transactions between them. An entity shall disclose the name of its parent and, if different, the ultimate controlling party. If neither the entity’s parent nor the ultimate controlling party produces consolidated financial statements available for public use, the name of the next most senior parent that does so shall also be disclosed

Information about subsidiaries
An entity shall disclose information that enables users of its consolidated financial statements to evaluate the nature and extent of significant restrictions on its ability to access or use assets, and settle liabilities, of the group and the nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with its interests in consolidated structured entities When the financial statements of a subsidiary used in the preparation of consolidated financial statements are as of a date or for a period that is different from that of the consolidated financial statements, an entity shall disclose: 1. the date of the end of the reporting period of the financial statements of that subsidiary; and 2. the reason for using a different date or period An entity shall disclose: 1. significant restrictions (e.g., statutory, contractual and regulatory restrictions) on its ability to
access or use the assets and settle the liabilities of the group, such as: a. those that restrict the ability of a parent or its subsidiaries to transfer cash or other assets
to (or from) other entities within the group b. guarantees or other requirements that may restrict dividends and other capital distributions
being paid, or loans and advances being made or repaid, to (or from) other entities within the group
2. the nature and extent to which protective rights of non-controlling interests can significantly restrict the entity’s ability to access or use the assets and settle the liabilities of the group (such as when a parent is obliged to settle liabilities of a subsidiary before settling its own liabilities, or approval of non-controlling interests is required either to access the assets or to settle the liabilities of a subsidiary)
3. the carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements of the assets and liabilities to which those restrictions apply
Interests in consolidated structured entities
An entity shall disclose the terms of any contractual arrangements that could require the parent or its subsidiaries to provide financial support to a consolidated structured entity, including events or circumstances that could expose the reporting entity to a loss (e.g., liquidity arrangements or credit rating triggers associated with obligations to purchase assets of the structured entity or provide financial support) If during the reporting period a parent or any of its subsidiaries has, without having a contractual obligation to do so, provided financial or other support to a consolidated structured entity (e.g., purchasing assets of or instruments issued by the structured entity), the entity shall disclose: 1. the type and amount of support provided, including situations in which the parent or its
subsidiaries assisted the structured entity in obtaining financial support; and 2. the reasons for providing the support Commentary: Structured entity is defined as an entity that has been designed so that the voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when any voting rights relate to administrative tasks only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements.

Information about subsidiaries (continued) If during the reporting period a parent or any of its subsidiaries has, without having a contractual obligation to do so, provided financial or other support to a previously unconsolidated structured entity and that provision of support resulted in the entity controlling the structured entity, the entity shall disclose an explanation of the relevant factors in reaching that decision
An entity shall disclose any current intentions to provide financial or other support to a consolidated structured entity, including intentions to assist the structured entity in obtaining financial support An entity shall disclose information that enables users of its consolidated financial statements to understand the composition of the group A listed issuer shall include in its financial statements a statement showing: 1. The name of every subsidiary, its principal country of operation and its country of incorporation
or other establishment, and, in the case of a subsidiary established in the PRC, the kind of legal entity it is registered as under PRC law (such as a contractual or cooperative joint venture)
2.

Information about subsidiaries (continued)
Particulars of the Company’s principal subsidiaries are as follows: (continued)
*** FFF Limited is registered as a wholly-foreign-owned enterprise under PRC law.
**** GGG Limited, a Hong Kong listed company, is accounted for as a subsidiary of the Group even though
the Group has only a 48% equity interest in this company based on the factors explained in note 3 to the

During the year, the Group acquired FFF Limited from a fellow subsidiary of the Company. Further details of
this acquisition are included in notes 42 and 49(b)(ii) to the financial statements.
The above table lists the subsidiaries of the Company which, in the opinion of the directors, principally affected
the results for the year or formed a substantial portion of the net assets of the Group. To give details of other
subsidiaries would, in the opinion of the directors, result in particulars of excessive length.

Interests in unconsolidated structured entities See the definition of structured entity on page (38) An entity shall disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its interests in unconsolidated structured entities, including, but not limited to, the nature, purpose, size and activities of the structured entity and how the structured entity is financed If an entity has sponsored an unconsolidated structured entity for which it does not provide information required by HKFRS 12.29 (e.g., because it does not have an interest in the entity at the reporting date), the entity shall disclose: 1. how it has determined which structured entities it has sponsored 2. income from those structured entities during the reporting period, including a description of the
types of income presented 3. the carrying amount (at the time of transfer) of all assets transferred to those structured
entities during the reporting period An entity shall present the information in HKFRS 12.27(b) and (c) in tabular format, unless another format is more appropriate, and classify its sponsoring activities into relevant categories An entity shall disclose in tabular format, unless another format is more appropriate, a summary of 1. the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities recognised in its financial statements relating
to its interests in unconsolidated structured entities 2. the line items in the statement of financial position in which those assets and liabilities are
recognised 3. the amount that best represents the entity’s maximum exposure to loss from its interests in
unconsolidated structured entities, including how the maximum exposure to loss is determined. If an entity cannot quantify its maximum exposure to loss from its interests in unconsolidated structured entities it shall disclose the fact and the reasons
4. a comparison of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the entity that relate to its interests in unconsolidated structured entities and the entity’s maximum exposure to loss from those entities
If during the reporting period an entity has, without having a contractual obligation to do so, provided financial or other support to an unconsolidated structured entity in which it previously had or currently has an interest (for example, purchasing assets of or instruments issued by the structured entity), the entity shall disclose: 1. the type and amount of support provided, including situations in which the entity assisted the
structured entity in obtaining financial support 2. the reasons for providing the support An entity shall disclose any current intentions to provide financial or other support to an unconsolidated structured entity, including intentions to assist the structured entity in obtaining financial support In addition to the information required by HKFRS 12.29-31, an entity shall disclose the following additional information that is necessary to meet the disclosure objective of providing information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the nature of, and changes in, the risks associated with its interests in unconsolidated structured entities

(40)
Interests in unconsolidated structured entities (continued) Examples of additional information that, depending on the circumstances, might be relevant to an assessment of the risks to which an entity is exposed when it has an interest in an unconsolidated structured entity are: 1. the terms of an arrangement that could require the entity to provide financial support to an
unconsolidated structured entity (e.g., liquidity arrangements or credit rating triggers associated with obligations to purchase assets of the structured entity or provide financial support), including: a. a description of events or circumstances that could expose the reporting entity to a loss b. whether there are any terms that would limit the obligation c. whether there are any other parties that provide financial support and, if so, how the
reporting entity’s obligation ranks with those of other parties 2. losses incurred by the entity during the reporting period relating to its interests in
unconsolidated structured entities 3. the types of income the entity received during the reporting period from its interests in
unconsolidated structured entities 4. whether the entity is required to absorb losses of an unconsolidated structured entity before
other parties, the maximum limit of such losses for the entity, and (if relevant) the ranking and amounts of potential losses borne by parties whose interests rank lower than the entity’s interest in the unconsolidated structured entity
5. information about any liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other commitments with third parties that may affect the fair value or risk of the entity’s interests in unconsolidated structured entities
6. any difficulties an unconsolidated structured entity has experienced in financing its activities during the reporting period
7. in relation to the funding of an unconsolidated structured entity, the forms of funding (e.g., commercial paper or medium-term notes) and their weighted average life. That information might include maturity analyses of the assets and funding of an unconsolidated structured entity if the structured entity has longer-term assets funded by shorter-term funding
Commentary: Hong Kong Listed Limited does not have any interests in structured entities and therefore, the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 12.24-31, HKFRS 12.B25-B26 and HKFRS 12.14-17 do not apply to the Group. However, whenever a reporting entity has an interest in a structured entity even though it is not consolidated, the disclosure requirements as shown above and on page (40) apply to the entity “An interest” in another entity refers to contractual and non-contractual involvement that exposes an entity to variability of returns from the performance of the other entity. An interest in another entity can be evidenced by, but is not limited to, the holding of equity or debt instruments as well as other forms of involvement such as the provision of funding, liquidity support, credit enhancement and guarantees. It includes the means by which an entity has control or joint control of, or significant influence over, another entity. An entity does not necessarily have an interest in another entity solely because of a typical customer supplier relationship Consideration of the purpose and design of the other entity may help the reporting entity when assessing whether it has an interest in that entity and, therefore, whether it is required to provide the disclosures in HKFRS 12. That assessment shall include consideration of the risks that the other entity was designed to create and the risks the other entity was designed to pass on to the reporting entity and other parties. Therefore, the definition of “an interest” in HKFRS 12 is much wider than simply holding equity or debt instruments in an entity A structured entity often has some or all of the following features or attributes: 1. restricted activities
2. a narrow and well-defined objective, such as to effect a tax-efficient lease, carry out research
and development activities, provide a source of capital or funding to an entity or provide investment opportunities for investors by passing on risks and rewards associated with the assets of the structured entity to investors
3. insufficient equity to permit the structured entity to finance its activities without subordinated financial support
4. financing in the form of multiple contractually linked instruments to investors that create concentrations of credit or other risks (tranches)
Examples of entities that are regarded as structured entities include, but are not limited to securitisation vehicles, asset-backed financings and some investment funds An entity that is controlled by voting rights is not a structured entity simply because, for example, it receives funding from third parties following a restructuring

Accounting standards adopted
An entity whose financial statements comply with HKFRSs shall make an explicit and unreserved statement of such compliance in the notes The financial statements for a financial year must state whether they have been prepared in accordance with the applicable accounting standards within section 380 of the Companies Ordinance and if they have not been so prepared, the particulars of, and the reasons for, any material departure from those standards In the accounting policies section a listed issuer shall state which body of accounting standards have been followed in the preparation of its financial statements. Where applicable, a listed issuer should include a statement by the directors as to the reasons for any significant departure from an accounting standard that forms part of this body of accounting standards
HKAS1.16 Sch4.Part1.4 (a)&(b) GEM18.19 A16(5) /GEM18.20
Commentary: 1. Annual financial statements of a listed issuer are required, subject to certain exemption under
Appendix 16(2)(2.4) and (2.6), to conform with either Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (Note: In December 2010, the Stock Exchange announced amendments to the Listing Rules to allow Mainland incorporated issuers to prepare their financial statements using Mainland accounting standards. These amendments came into effect on 15 December 2010)
2. For the purpose of a Hong Kong incorporated company, the “applicable accounting standards” are HKFRSs

Going concern
When an entity does not prepare financial statements on a going concern basis, it shall disclose that fact, together with the basis on which it prepared the financial statements and the reason why the entity is not regarded as a going concern Disclosure is required if management is aware of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The events or conditions requiring disclosure may arise after the reporting period
HKAS1.25 HKAS10.16(b)
Consolidation of financial statements
When the financial statements of a subsidiary used in the preparation of consolidated financial statements are as of a date or for a period that is different from that of the consolidated financial statements (see HKFRS 10.B92-B93), an entity shall disclose: 1. the date of the end of the reporting period of the financial statements of that subsidiary 2. the reason for using a different date or period Commentary: 1. According to S379(2) of the Companies Ordinance, if the reporting entity is a holding company
at the end of the financial year and is not a wholly owned subsidiary of another body corporate, the company’s directors must prepare consolidated financial statements unless the exemption criteria in S379(3)(b)(i) and S379(3)(b)(ii) are met (which are not applicable to a Hong Kong listed company)
2. If a holding company is required to prepare consolidated financial statements, it is not required to prepare company level financial statements under S379(1) of the Companies Ordinance (Q12 of the Company Registry’s FAQ)
3. Specified financial statements are defined in S436(6) of the Companies Ordinance. Specified financial statements can be company-level or consolidated financial statements depending on whether a company prepares consolidated financial statements under S379(2) of Companies Ordinance

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards
(“HKFRSs”) (which include all Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards
(“HKASs”) and Interpretations) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”),
accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance [Or (for a
non-Hong Kong incorporated company) accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the
disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance]. They have been prepared under the
historical cost convention, except for investment properties, certain buildings classified as property, plant and
equipment, derivative financial instruments and equity investments which have been measured at fair value.
Disposal groups held for sale are stated at the lower of their carrying amounts and fair values less costs to sell
as further explained in note 2.4. These financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars and all values
are rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicated.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries
(collectively referred to as the “Group”) for the year ended 31 December 2017. A subsidiary is an entity
(including a structured entity), directly or indirectly, controlled by the Company. Control is achieved when the
Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to
affect those returns through its power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give the Group the current
ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).
When the Company has, directly or indirectly, less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee,
the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee,
including:
(a) the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee; (b) rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
(c) the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using
consistent accounting policies. The results of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Group
obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent of
the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit
balance. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions
between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are
changes to one or more of the three elements of control described above. A change in the ownership interest
of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises (i) the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of
the subsidiary, (ii) the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest and (iii) the cumulative translation
differences recorded in equity; and recognises (i) the fair value of the consideration received, (ii) the fair value of
any investment retained and (iii) any resulting surplus or deficit in profit or loss. The Group’s share of
components previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss or retained
profits, as appropriate, on the same basis as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related
assets or liabilities.

Initial application of an HKFRS
When initial application of an HKFRS has an effect on the current period or any prior period, would have such an effect except that it is impracticable to determine the amount of the adjustment, or might have an effect on future periods, an entity shall disclose: 1. the title of the HKFRS 2. when applicable, that the change in accounting policy is made in accordance with its transitional
provisions 3. the nature of the change in accounting policy 4. when applicable, a description of the transitional provisions 5. when applicable, the transitional provisions that might have an effect on future periods 6. for the current period and each prior period presented, to the extent practicable, the amount of

information 3. for the current period and each prior period presented, to the extent practicable, the amount of
the adjustment: a. for each financial statement line item affected b. if HKAS 33 applies to the entity, for basic and diluted earnings per share

2.2 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES
The Group has adopted the following revised HKFRSs for the first time for the current year's financial
statements.
Amendments to HKAS 7 Disclosure Initiative
Amendments to HKAS 12 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses
Amendments to HKFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities: Clarification of the Scope of
included in Annual HKFRS 12
Improvements to HKFRSs
2014-2016 Cycle
Or
Other than as explained below regarding the impact of (state the applicable standards), the adoption of the above
revised standards has had no significant financial effect on these financial statements.
Or
None of the above amendments to HKFRSs has had a significant financial effect on these financial statements.
Disclosure has been made in note 44(b) to the financial statements upon the adoption of amendments to HKAS 7,
which require an entity to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in
liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.
The nature and the impact of the amendments are described below:
(a) Amendments to HKAS 7 require an entity to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements
to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash
flows and non-cash changes. Disclosure of the changes in liabilities arising from financing activities is
provided in note 44(b) to the financial statements.
(b) Amendments to HKAS 12 clarify that an entity, when assessing whether taxable profits will be available
against which it can utilise a deductible temporary difference, needs to consider whether tax law restricts
the sources of taxable profits against which it may make deductions on the reversal of that deductible
temporary difference. Furthermore, the amendments provide guidance on how an entity should determine
future taxable profits and explain the circumstances in which taxable profit may include the recovery of
some assets for more than their carrying amount. The amendments have had no impact on the financial
position or performance of the Group as the Group has no deductible temporary differences or assets that
are in the scope of the amendments. (Or add the impact upon initial application)
(c) Amendments to HKFRS 12 clarify that the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 12, other than those
disclosure requirements in paragraphs B10 to B16 of HKFRS 12, apply to an entity’s interest in a
subsidiary, a joint venture or an associate, or a portion of its interest in a joint venture or an associate that
is classified as held for sale or included in a disposal group classified as held for sale. The amendments
have had no impact on the Group’s financial statements as the Group’s subsidiary classified as a disposal
group held for sale as at 31 December 2017 is a wholly-owned subsidiary and so no additional information
is required to be disclosed. (Or add the impact upon initial application)
43
Issued but not yet effective Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards When an entity has not applied a new HKFRS that has been issued but is not yet effective, the entity shall disclose: 1. this fact 2. known or reasonably estimable information relevant to assessing the possible impact that
application of the new HKFRS will have on the entity’s financial statements in the period of initial application

Impacts of HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 15
Commentary:
As HKFRS 9 and 15 are effective from 1 January 2018, most entities will have performed a detailed
assessment about the impacts of those standards by the time of the preparation and issuance of the
December 2017 financial statements. It will therefore be expected by the stakeholders of a listed
company’s financial statements that the HKAS 8 disclosures about the impacts of HKFRS 9 and
HKFRS 15 will be relatively detailed. The disclosures included in Hong Kong Listed Limited are for
general reference only. Clients will need to ensure that the disclosures included in their financial
statements reflect the facts and circumstances particular to their operations and the transitional
approach to be adopted. For example, the disclosures about HKFRS 15 will be different depending
on whether the standard is to be adopted fully retrospectively or the modified retrospective approach
is to be followed
HKAS 8 does not prescribe how the information disclosed should be presented or how granular the
expected quantitative impacts are to be shown. As an alternative to the approach illustrated in Hong
Kong Listed Limited, entities might decide to show the impacts to the financial statements on an
individual line by line basis in tabular form
Depending on how finalised the disclosed impacts are, a statement that the information disclosed
could be subject to further change might be appropriate. Whilst illustrative wording is included on
page 44, this should reflect the particular circumstances of the entity
Effective date of HKFRS 9
Commentary: HKFRS 9 applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Earlier application is permitted. If an entity elects to apply HKFRS 9 early, it must disclose that fact and apply all of the requirements in HKFRS 9 at the same time Despite the requirements in paragraph 7.1.1 of HKFRS 9, for annual periods beginning before 1 January 2018, an entity may elect to early apply only the requirements for the presentation of gains and losses on financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss in paragraphs 5.7.1(c), 5.7.7 - 5.7.9, 7.2.14 and B5.7.5 - B5.7.20 of HKFRS 9 without applying the other requirements in HKFRS 9. If an entity elects to apply only those paragraphs, it shall disclose that fact and provide on an ongoing basis the related disclosures set out in paragraphs 10 - 11 of HKFRS 7 (as amended by HKFRS 9 (2010)) HKFRS 9 supersedes HKFRS 9 (2009), HKFRS 9 (2010) and HKFRS 9 (2013). However, for annual periods beginning before 1 January 2018, an entity may elect to apply those earlier versions of HKFRS 9 instead of applying the 2014 version of HKFRS 9 if, and only if, the entity’s relevant date of initial application is before 1 February 2015

Further information about those HKFRSs that are expected to be applicable to the Group is described below. [Of those standards, HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 15 will be applicable for the Group’s financial year ending 31
December 2018 and are expected to have a significant impact upon adoption. Whilst management has
performed a detailed assessment of the estimated impacts of these standards, that assessment is based on the
information currently available to the Group[, including expectations of the application of transitional provision
options and policy choices]. The actual impacts upon adoption could be different to those below, depending on
additional reasonable and supportable information being made available to the Group at the time of applying the
standards [and the transitional provisions and policy options finally adopted].] (See commentary on the impacts
of HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 15 on page (44))
The HKICPA issued amendments to HKFRS 2 in August 2016 that address three main areas: the effects of
vesting conditions on the measurement of a cash-settled share-based payment transaction; the classification of
a share-based payment transaction with net settlement features for withholding a certain amount in order to
meet an employee’s tax obligation associated with the share-based payment; and accounting where a
modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment transaction changes its classification from
cash-settled to equity-settled. The amendments clarify that the approach used to account for vesting conditions
when measuring equity-settled share-based payments also applies to cash-settled share-based payments. The
amendments introduce an exception so that a share-based payment transaction with net share settlement
features for withholding a certain amount in order to meet the employee’s tax obligation is classified in its
entirety as an equity-settled share-based payment transaction when certain conditions are met. Furthermore,
the amendments clarify that if the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based payment transaction are
modified, with the result that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment transaction, the transaction is
accounted for as an equity-settled transaction from the date of the modification. On adoption, entities are
required to apply the amendments without restating prior periods, but retrospective application is permitted if
they elect to adopt for all three amendments and other criteria are met. The Group will adopt the amendments
from 1 January 2018. The amendments are not expected to have any significant impact on the Group’s
financial statements.

2.3 ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (continued)
In September 2014, the HKICPA issued the final version of HKFRS 9, bringing together all phases of the
financial instruments project to replace HKAS 39 and all previous versions of HKFRS 9. The standard
introduces new requirements for classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting. The
Group will adopt HKFRS 9 from 1 January 2018. The Group will not restate comparative information and will
recognise any transition adjustments against the opening balance of equity at 1 January 2018. During 2017,
the Group has performed a detailed assessment of the impact of the adoption of HKFRS 9. The expected
impacts relate to the classification and measurement and the impairment requirements and are summarised as
follows:
(a) Classification and measurement
The Group does not expect that the adoption of HKFRS 9 will have a significant impact on the classification
and measurement of its financial assets. It expects to continue measuring at fair value all financial assets
currently held at fair value. Equity investments currently held as available for sale will be measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income as the investments are intended to be held for the foreseeable
future and the Group expects to apply the option to present fair value changes in other comprehensive
income. Gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income for the equity investments cannot be
recycled to profit or loss when the investments are derecognised.
Or
Upon adoption of HKFRS 9, the classification and measurement of financial assets depends on two
assessments: the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the entity’s business model for
managing the financial asset. The Group’s bills receivable of HK$... as at 31 December 2017 are managed with
a business model under which bills receivable are not held to collect contractual cash flows as the Group
regularly discounts bills receivable to banks prior to their expiry date. Accordingly, these bills receivable will be
reclassified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Or
Upon adoption of HKFRS 9, the classification and measurement of financial assets depends on two
assessments: the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the entity’s business model for
managing the financial asset. The Group has assessed that the loans to … of HK$... as at 31 December 2017,
that are currently measured at amortised cost, would not pass the contractual cash flow characteristics test in
HKFRS 9 and will be reclassified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Add any other expected impact upon initial application
(b) Impairment
HKFRS 9 requires an impairment on debt instruments recorded at amortised cost or at fair value through
other comprehensive income, lease receivables, loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts that
are not accounted for at fair value through profit or loss under HKFRS 9, to be recorded based on an
expected credit loss model either on a twelve-month basis or a lifetime basis. The Group will apply the
simplified approach and record lifetime expected losses that are estimated based on the present values of
all cash shortfalls over the remaining life of all of its trade receivables. Furthermore, the Group will apply
the general approach and record twelve-month expected credit losses that are estimated based on the
possible default events on its other receivables within the next twelve months (add any other debt
instruments as applicable). The Group has determined that, due to the unsecured nature of its trade and
other receivables (add any other debt instruments as applicable), the provision for impairment will increase
by HK$... with a corresponding related decrease in net deferred tax liabilities of HK$... upon the initial
adoption of the standard.

Amendments to HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28 (2011) address an inconsistency between the requirements in
HKFRS 10 and in HKAS 28 (2011) in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its
associate or joint venture. The amendments require a full recognition of a gain or loss when the sale or
contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture constitutes a business. For a
transaction involving assets that do not constitute a business, a gain or loss resulting from the transaction is
recognised in the investor’s profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investor’s interest in that associate
or joint venture. The amendments are to be applied prospectively. The previous mandatory effective date of
amendments to HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28 (2011) was removed by the HKICPA in January 2016 and a new
mandatory effective date will be determined after the completion of a broader review of accounting for
associates and joint ventures. However, the amendments are available for adoption now.
HKFRS 15, issued in July 2014, establishes a new five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts
with customers. Under HKFRS 15, revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which
an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The principles in
HKFRS 15 provide a more structured approach for measuring and recognising revenue. The standard also
introduces extensive qualitative and quantitative disclosure requirements, including disaggregation of total
revenue, information about performance obligations, changes in contract asset and liability account balances
between periods and key judgements and estimates. The standard will supersede all current revenue
recognition requirements under HKFRSs. Either a full retrospective application or a modified retrospective
adoption is required on the initial application of the standard. In June 2016, the HKICPA issued amendments to
HKFRS 15 to address the implementation issues on identifying performance obligations, application guidance
on principal versus agent and licences of intellectual property, and transition. The amendments are also
intended to help ensure a more consistent application when entities adopt HKFRS 15 and decrease the cost
and complexity of applying the standard. The Group will adopt HKFRS 15 from 1 January 2018 and plans to
adopt the full retrospective approach. [Or The Group plans to adopt the transitional provisions in HKFRS 15 to
recognise the cumulative effect of initial adoption as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings
at 1 January 2018. In addition, the Group plans to apply the new requirements only to contracts that are not
completed before 1 January 2018. The Group expects that the transitional adjustment to be made on 1 January
2018 upon initial adoption of HKFRS 15 will not be material. However, the expected changes in accounting
policies, as further explained below, will have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements from 2018
onwards.] During 2017, the Group has performed a detailed assessment on the impact of the adoption of
HKFRS 15.
The Group’s principal activities consist of the manufacture and sale of electronic products, the manufacture and
sale of machinery, property investment and the provision of property management services. The expected
impacts arising from the adoption of HKFRS 15 on the Group are summarised as follows:
(a) Sale of machinery with installation services
The Group provides installation services for the sale of machinery. Currently, when installation services
are bundled together with the sale of machinery, revenue from the sale of machinery is recognised after
the installation services are completed. Upon the adoption of HKFRS 15, revenue from the sale of
machinery will be recognised at a point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer,
generally on delivery of the goods. The Group has assessed that the installation services bundled
together with the sale of machinery are distinct and are considered as separate performance obligations
under HKFRS 15. The Group has further assessed that the services are satisfied over time given that the
customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Group. Revenue allocated
to the installation services will be recognised over the period that the services are provided. The Group
has determined that when HKFRS 15 is adopted, revenue from the sale of machinery and the revenue
from installation services for 2017 will be increased by HK$... and HK$... respectively because of the
allocation of a portion of contract consideration as revenue of the sale of machinery which will be
recognised earlier as compared to current practice and the recognition of a portion of installation services
income over time. The current portion of deferred income will be lower by HK$... .

(b) Variable consideration on the sale of electronic products
The Group provides a right of return, trade discounts or volume rebates for some of the sales contracts of
electronic products with customers. Currently, the Group recognises revenue from the sale of goods
measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade
discounts and volume rebates. If revenue cannot be reliably measured, revenue recognition is deferred
until the uncertainty is resolved. Under HKFRS 15, a transaction price is considered variable if a customer
is provided with a right of return, trade discounts or volume rebates. The Group is required to estimate the
amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in the sales of its electronic products and the estimated
amount of variable consideration will be included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is highly
probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when
the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Group has
decided to use the expected value method to estimate the goods that will be returned and the amount of
volume rebates as this method better predicts the amount of variable consideration to which the Group will
be entitled. The Group has estimated that, when it adopts HKFRS 15, an adjustment to reduce revenue
for the sales returns by HK$... and related adjustment to cost of sales of HK$... will be required for 2017.
The Group will present a refund liability and an asset for the right to recover products from customers
separately in the consolidated statement of financial position upon the adoption of HKFRS 15. On
transition to HKFRS 15, the Group will reclassify other payables and accruals of HK$... as a refund liability
and reclassify the related inventories of HK$... as a right to recover products from customers on return.
Accordingly, an additional refund liability of HK$... and a right to recover products from customers on
return of HK$... will be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as at the end of 2017.
For the volume rebates, the Group has estimated that contract liabilities of HK$ … will be recognised for
the volume rebates on transition to HKFRS 15. Furthermore, the Group has estimated that an adjustment
to reduce revenue by HK$... would be needed in 2017, with a corresponding increase in contract liabilities.
Accordingly, an additional contract liability of HK$... will be recognised for the expected future rebates as
part of contract liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position as at the end of 2017.
(c) Presentation and disclosure
The presentation and disclosure requirements in HKFRS 15 are more detailed than those under the
current HKAS 18. The presentation requirements represent a significant change from current practice and
will significantly increase the volume of disclosures required in the Group’s financial statements. Many of
the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 15 are new and the Group has assessed that the impact of some
of these disclosure requirements will be significant. In particular, the Group expects that the notes to the
financial statements will be expanded because of the disclosure of significant judgements made on
determining the transaction prices of those contracts that include variable consideration, how the
transaction prices have been allocated to the performance obligations, and the assumptions made to
estimate the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. In addition, as required by HKFRS
15, the Group will disaggregate revenue recognised from contracts with customers into categories that
depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by
economic factors. It will also disclose information about the relationship between the disclosure of
disaggregated revenue and revenue information disclosed for each reportable segment.

HKFRS 16, issued in May 2016, replaces HKAS 17 Leases, HK(IFRIC)-Int 4 Determining whether an
Arrangement contains a Lease, HK(SIC)-Int 15 Operating Leases - Incentives and HK(SIC)-Int 27 Evaluating
the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard sets out the principles for the
recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to recognise assets and
liabilities for most leases. The standard includes two elective recognition exemptions for lessees – leases of
low-value assets and short-term leases. At the commencement date of a lease, a lessee will recognise a
liability to make lease payments (i.e., the lease liability) and an asset representing the right to use the
underlying asset during the lease term (i.e., the right-of-use asset). The right-of-use asset is subsequently
measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses unless the right-of-use asset meets
the definition of investment property in HKAS 40, or relates to a class of property, plant and equipment to which
the revaluation model is applied. The lease liability is subsequently increased to reflect the interest on the lease
liability and reduced for the lease payments. Lessees will be required to separately recognise the interest
expense on the lease liability and the depreciation expense on the right-of-use asset. Lessees will also be
required to remeasure the lease liability upon the occurrence of certain events, such as change in the lease
term and change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine those
payments. Lessees will generally recognise the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an
adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Lessor accounting under HKFRS 16 is substantially unchanged from the
accounting under HKAS 17. Lessors will continue to classify all leases using the same classification principle
as in HKAS 17 and distinguish between operating leases and finance leases. HKFRS 16 requires lessees and
lessors to make more extensive disclosures than under HKAS 17. Lessees can choose to apply the standard
using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. The Group expects to adopt HKFRS 16
from 1 January 2019. The Group is currently assessing the impact of HKFRS 16 upon adoption. and is
considering whether it will choose to take advantage of the practical expedients available and which transition
approach and reliefs will be adopted. As disclosed in note 47(b) to the financial statements, at 31 December
2017, the Group had future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases in aggregate of
approximately HK$15,468,000. Upon adoption of HKFRS 16, certain amounts included therein may need to be
recognised as new right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Further analysis, however, will be needed to
determine the amount of new rights of use assets and lease liabilities to be recognised, including, but not limited
to, any amounts relating to leases of low-value assets and short term leases, other practical expedients and
reliefs chosen, and new leases entered into before the date of adoption.

Amendments to HKAS 40, issued in April 2017, clarify when an entity should transfer property, including
property under construction or development, into or out of investment property. The amendments state that a
change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property and
there is evidence of the change in use. A mere change in management’s intentions for the use of a property
does not provide evidence of a change in use. The amendments should be applied prospectively to the
changes in use that occur on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies
the amendments. An entity should reassess the classification of property held at the date that it first applies the
amendments and, if applicable, reclassify property to reflect the conditions that exist at that date. Retrospective
application is only permitted if it is possible without the use of hindsight. The Group expects to adopt the
amendments prospectively from 1 January 2018. The amendments are not expected to have any significant
impact on the Group’s financial statements. (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)
HK(IFRIC)-Int 22, issued in June 2017, provides guidance on how to determine the date of the transaction when
applying HKAS 21 to the situation where an entity receives or pays advance consideration in a foreign currency
and recognises a non-monetary asset or liability. The interpretation clarifies that the date of the transaction for
the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or
income (or part of it) is the date on which an entity initially recognises the non-monetary asset (such as a
prepayment) or non-monetary liability (such as deferred income) arising from the payment or receipt of the
advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance of recognising the related item,
the entity must determine the transaction date for each payment or receipt of the advance consideration.
Entities may apply the interpretation on a full retrospective basis or on a prospective basis, either from the
beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the interpretation or the beginning of the prior
reporting period presented as comparative information in the financial statements of the reporting period in
which the entity first applies the interpretation. The Group expects to adopt the interpretation prospectively from
1 January 2018. The amendments are not expected to have any significant impact on the Group’s financial
statements. (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)
HK(IFRIC)-Int 23, issued in July 2017, addresses the accounting for income taxes (current and deferred) when
tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of HKAS 12 (often referred to as “uncertain tax
positions”). The interpretation does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of HKAS 12, nor does it
specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments.
The interpretation specifically addresses (i) whether an entity considers uncertain tax treatments separately; (ii)
the assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities; (iii) how an
entity determines taxable profits or tax losses, tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates;
and (iv) how an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances. The interpretation is to be applied
retrospectively, either fully retrospectively without the use of hindsight or retrospectively with the cumulative
effect of application as an adjustment to the opening equity at the date of initial application, without the
restatement of comparative information. The Group expects to adopt the interpretation from 1 January 2019.
The amendments are not expected to have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements. (Or add

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Investments in associates and joint ventures
An associate is an entity in which the Group has a long term interest of generally not less than 20% of the
equity voting rights and over which it is in a position to exercise significant influence. Significant influence is the
power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint
control over those policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement
have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of
an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent
of the parties sharing control.
The Group's investments in associates and joint ventures are stated in the consolidated statement of financial
position at the Group's share of net assets under the equity method of accounting, less any impairment losses.
Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.
The Group's share of the post-acquisition results and other comprehensive income of associates and joint
ventures is included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and consolidated other comprehensive
income, respectively. In addition, when there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the
associate or joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the consolidated
statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and
its associates or joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s investments in the associates or joint
ventures, except where unrealised losses provide evidence of an impairment of the assets transferred.
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of associates or joint ventures is included as part of the Group's
investments in associates or joint ventures.
If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or vice versa, the retained interest is
not remeasured. Instead, the investment continues to be accounted for under the equity method. In all other
cases, upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint control over the joint venture, the Group
measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount
of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the
retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
When an investment in an associate or a joint venture is classified as held for sale, it is accounted for in
accordance with HKFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
Interests in joint operations A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. (Include the definition of joint control if not defined elsewhere in other accounting policy notes) Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The Group recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation:
its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;
its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;
its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation;
its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and
its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to the Group’s interest in a joint operation are accounted for in accordance with the HKFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred is
measured at the acquisition date fair value which is the sum of the acquisition date fair values of assets
transferred by the Group, liabilities assumed by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity
interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. For each business combination, the
Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership
interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of net assets in the event of liquidation at fair value or
at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other components of non-controlling
interests are measured at fair value. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate
classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent
conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts of
the acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the previously held equity interest is remeasured at its
acquisition date fair value and any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date.
Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is measured at fair value with changes in fair value
recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured and
subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the
amount recognised for non-controlling interests and any fair value of the Group’s previously held equity
interests in the acquiree over the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the sum of this
consideration and other items is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is, after
reassessment, recognised in profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is
tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying value may be impaired. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at 31 December.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date,
allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that are expected to
benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the Group are
assigned to those units or groups of units.
Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (group of cash-
generating units) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit
(group of cash-generating units) is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. An
impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
Where goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) and part of the
operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the
carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on the disposal. Goodwill disposed of in
these circumstances is measured based on the relative value of the operation disposed of and the portion of the
cash-generating unit retained.

Fair value measurement
An entity shall disclose and consistently follow its policy for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred in accordance with HKFRS 13.93(c) and (e)(iv). The policy about the timing of recognising transfers shall be the same for transfers into the levels as for transfers out of the levels. Examples of policies for determining the timing of transfers include the following: 1. the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer 2. the beginning of the reporting period 3. the end of the reporting period Commentary: The measurement and disclosure requirements of HKFRS 13 do not apply to the following: 1. share-based payment transactions within the scope of HKFRS 2 2. leasing transactions within the scope of HKAS 17 3. measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net
realisable value in HKAS 2 or value in use in HKAS 36 The disclosures required by HKFRS 13 are not required for the following: 1. plan assets measured at fair value in accordance with HKAS 19 2. retirement benefit plan investments measured at fair value in accordance with HKAS 26 3. assets for which recoverable amount is fair value less costs of disposal in accordance with
HKAS 36

Fair value of financial instruments
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price (i.e., the fair value of the consideration given or received, see also HKFRS 13). If an entity determines that the fair value at initial recognition differs from the transaction price as mentioned in HKAS 39.43A, the entity shall account for that instrument at that date as follows: 1. at the measurement required by HKAS 39.43 if that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in
an active market for an identical asset or liability (i.e., Level 1 input) or based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets. An entity shall recognise the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price as a gain or loss
2. in all other cases, at the measurement required by HKAS 39.43, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price. After initial recognition, the entity shall recognise that deferred difference as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a change in a factor (including time) that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability
In such cases, an entity shall disclose by class of financial instrument its accounting policy for recognising in profit or loss the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price to reflect a change in factors (including time) that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair value measurement
The Group measures its investment properties, derivative financial instruments and equity investments at fair
value at the end of each reporting period. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair
value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability
takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, in the
most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the most advantageous market must be
accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market
participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their
economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant
that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are
available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of
unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are
categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 – based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – based on valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 – based on valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group
determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation
(based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each
reporting period.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Where an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required (other than
inventories, construction contract assets, financial assets, investment properties and non-current assets/a
disposal group classified as held for sale), the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. An asset's recoverable
amount is the higher of the asset's or cash-generating unit's value in use and its fair value less costs of
disposal, and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are
largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is
determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is recognised only if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. In
assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the
asset. An impairment loss is charged to the statement of profit or loss in the period in which it arises in those
expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.
Or
(Only if there are revalued assets in the financial statements) An impairment loss is charged to the statement
of profit or loss in the period in which it arises, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case
the impairment loss is accounted for in accordance with the relevant accounting policy for that revalued asset.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Impairment of non-financial assets (continued)
An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period as to whether there is an indication that previously
recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such an indication exists, the
recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss of an asset other than goodwill is reversed
only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of that asset, but not to an
amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any depreciation/amortisation) had
no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of such an impairment loss is credited to
the statement of profit or loss in the period in which it arises, (only if there are revalued assets in the financial
statements) unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is
accounted for in accordance with the relevant accounting policy for that revalued asset.

Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at cost (Or valuation) less
accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. When an item of property, plant and equipment is
classified as held for sale or when it is part of a disposal group classified as held for sale, it is not depreciated
and is accounted for in accordance with HKFRS 5, as further explained in the accounting policy for “Non-
current assets and disposal groups held for sale”. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment
comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition
and location for its intended use.

Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (continued)
Cost may also include transfers from equity of any gains or losses on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign
currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Expenditure incurred after items of property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs
and maintenance, is normally charged to the statement of profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. In
situations where the recognition criteria are satisfied, the expenditure for a major inspection is capitalised in the
carrying amount of the asset as a replacement. Where significant parts of property, plant and equipment are
required to be replaced at intervals, the Group recognises such parts as individual assets with specific useful
lives and depreciates them accordingly.
Valuations are performed frequently enough to ensure that the fair value of a revalued asset does not differ
materially from its carrying amount. Changes in the values of property, plant and equipment are dealt with as
movements in the asset revaluation reserve. If the total of this reserve is insufficient to cover a deficit, on an
individual asset basis, the excess of the deficit is charged to the statement of profit or loss. Any subsequent
revaluation surplus is credited to the statement of profit or loss to the extent of the deficit previously charged.
An annual transfer from the asset revaluation reserve to retained profits is made for the difference between the
depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of an asset and the depreciation based on the asset's
original cost. On disposal of a revalued asset, the relevant portion of the asset revaluation reserve realised in
respect of previous valuations is transferred to retained profits as a movement in reserves.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis to write off the cost of each item of property, plant and
equipment to its residual value over its estimated useful life. The principal annual rates used for this purpose
are as follows:
Freehold land Not depreciated
Leasehold land under finance leases Over the lease terms
Buildings 2% to 5%
Leasehold improvements Over the shorter of the lease terms and 20%
Plant and machinery 10% to 25%
Furniture and fixtures 10% to 33⅓%
Motor vehicles 20% to 25%
Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of that item is
allocated on a reasonable basis among the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Residual values,
useful lives and the depreciation method are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at least at each financial
year end.
An item of property, plant and equipment including any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on
disposal or retirement recognised in the statement of profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised is the
difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset.
Construction in progress represents a building under construction, which is stated at cost less any impairment
losses, and is not depreciated. Cost comprises the direct costs of construction and capitalised borrowing costs
on related borrowed funds during the period of construction. Construction in progress is reclassified to the
appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for use.

Investment properties
Investment properties are interests in land and buildings (including the leasehold interest under an operating
lease for a property which would otherwise meet the definition of an investment property) held to earn rental
income and/or for capital appreciation, rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for
administrative purposes; or for sale in the ordinary course of business. Such properties are measured initially
at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair
value, which reflects market conditions at the end of the reporting period.
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the statement of
profit or loss in the year in which they arise.
Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognised in the statement of
profit or loss in the year of the retirement or disposal.
For a transfer from investment properties to owner-occupied properties or inventories, the deemed cost of a
property for subsequent accounting is its fair value at the date of change in use. If a property occupied by the
Group as an owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property
in accordance with the policy stated under “Property, plant and equipment and depreciation” up to the date of
change in use, and any difference at that date between the carrying amount and the fair value of the property
is accounted for as a revaluation in accordance with the policy stated under “Property, plant and equipment
and depreciation” above. For a transfer from inventories to investment properties, any difference between the
fair value of the property at that date and its previous carrying amount is recognised in the statement of profit
or loss.
Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be
recovered principally through a sales transaction rather than through continuing use. For this to be the case,
the asset or disposal group must be available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms
that are usual and customary for the sale of such assets or disposal groups and its sale must be highly
probable. All assets and liabilities of a subsidiary classified as a disposal group are reclassified as held for sale
regardless of whether the Group retains a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary after the sale.
Non-current assets and disposal groups (other than investment properties and financial assets) classified as
held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts and fair values less costs to sell. Property,
plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.
Intangible assets (other than goodwill)
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets
acquired in a business combination is the fair value at the date of acquisition. The useful lives of intangible
assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are subsequently
amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the
intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset
with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year end.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the cash-
generating unit level. Such intangible assets are not amortised. The useful life of an intangible asset with an
indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life assessment continues to be
supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for on a
prospective basis.

Leases

Intangible assets (other than goodwill) Patents and licences
Purchased patents and licences are stated at cost less any impairment losses and are amortised on the
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 10 to 15 years.
Research and development costs
All research costs are charged to the statement of profit or loss as incurred.
Expenditure incurred on projects to develop new products is capitalised and deferred only when the Group can
demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale,
its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic
benefits, the availability of resources to complete the project and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure
during the development. Product development expenditure which does not meet these criteria is expensed
when incurred.
Deferred development costs are stated at cost less any impairment losses and are amortised using the straight-
line basis over the commercial lives of the underlying products not exceeding five to seven years, commencing
from the date when the products are put into commercial production.
Leases
Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets to the Group, other than legal
title, are accounted for as finance leases. At the inception of a finance lease, the cost of the leased asset is
capitalised at the present value of the minimum lease payments and recorded together with the obligation,
excluding the interest element, to reflect the purchase and financing. Assets held under capitalised finance
leases, including prepaid land lease payments under finance leases, are included in property, plant and
equipment, and depreciated over the shorter of the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets.
The finance costs of such leases are charged to the statement of profit or loss so as to provide a constant
periodic rate of charge over the lease terms.
Assets acquired through hire purchase contracts of a financing nature are accounted for as finance leases, but
are depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the lessor are
accounted for as operating leases. Where the Group is the lessor, assets leased by the Group under operating
leases are included in non-current assets, and rentals receivable under the operating leases are credited to the
statement of profit or loss on the straight-line basis over the lease terms. Where the Group is the lessee,
rentals payable under operating leases net of any incentives received from the lessor are charged to the
statement of profit or loss on the straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Prepaid land lease payments under operating leases are initially stated at cost and subsequently recognised on
the straight-line basis over the lease terms.
When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and buildings elements, the entire
lease payments are included in the cost of the land and buildings as a finance lease in property, plant and
equipment.
Investments and other financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans
and receivables and available-for-sale financial investments, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments
in an effective hedge, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair
value plus transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets, except in the case of
financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Investments and other financial assets (continued)
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, that is, the date that
the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of
financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or
convention in the marketplace.
Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading and financial assets
designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets are classified as held for
trading if they are acquired for the purpose of sale in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded
derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments as
defined by HKAS 39.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value
with positive net changes in fair value presented as other income and gains and negative net changes in fair
value presented as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. These net fair value changes do not include
any dividends or interest earned on these financial assets, which are recognised in accordance with the policies
set out for “Revenue recognition” below.
Financial assets designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the
date of initial recognition and only if the criteria in HKAS 39 are satisfied.
Derivatives embedded in host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives and recorded at fair value if
their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host
contracts are not held for trading or designated as at fair value through profit or loss. These embedded
derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Reassessment only occurs if there is either a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the
cash flows that would otherwise be required or a reclassification of a financial asset out of the fair value through
profit or loss category.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such assets are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate method less any allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated by
taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees or costs that are an integral part
of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortisation is included in other income and gains in the
statement of profit or loss. The loss arising from impairment is recognised in the statement of profit or loss in
finance costs for loans and in other expenses for receivables.
Held-to-maturity investments
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held to
maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold them to maturity. Held-to-maturity
investments are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method less any
allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on
acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate
amortisation is included in [finance income] [other income and gains] in the statement of profit or loss. The
loss arising from impairment is recognised in the statement of profit or loss in other expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Investments and other financial assets (continued)
Available-for-sale financial investments
Available-for-sale financial investments are non-derivative financial assets in listed and unlisted equity
investments and debt securities. Equity investments classified as available for sale are those which are neither
classified as held for trading nor designated as at fair value through profit or loss. Debt securities in this
category are those which are intended to be held for an indefinite period of time and which may be sold in
response to needs for liquidity or in response to changes in market conditions.
After initial recognition, available-for-sale financial investments are subsequently measured at fair value, with
unrealised gains or losses recognised as other comprehensive income in the available-for-sale investment
revaluation reserve until the investment is derecognised, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is recognised
in the statement of profit or loss in other income, or until the investment is determined to be impaired, when the
cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from the available-for-sale investment revaluation reserve to the
statement of profit or loss in other gains or losses. Interest and dividends earned whilst holding the available-
for-sale financial investments are reported as interest income and dividend income, respectively and are
recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other income in accordance with the policies set out for
“Revenue recognition” below.
When the fair value of unlisted equity investments cannot be reliably measured because (a) the variability in the
range of reasonable fair value estimates is significant for that investment or (b) the probabilities of the various
estimates within the range cannot be reasonably assessed and used in estimating fair value, such investments
are stated at cost less any impairment losses.
The Group evaluates whether the ability and intention to sell its available-for-sale financial assets in the near
term are still appropriate. When, in rare circumstances, the Group is unable to trade these financial assets due
to inactive markets, the Group may elect to reclassify these financial assets if management has the ability and
intention to hold the assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity.
For a financial asset reclassified from the available-for-sale category, the fair value carrying amount at the date
of reclassification becomes its new amortised cost and any previous gain or loss on that asset that has been
recognised in equity is amortised to profit or loss over the remaining life of the investment using the effective
interest rate. Any difference between the new amortised cost and the maturity amount is also amortised over
the remaining life of the asset using the effective interest rate. If the asset is subsequently determined to be
impaired, then the amount recorded in equity is reclassified to the statement of profit or loss.
Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is
primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when:
the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to
pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through”
arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset,
or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but
has transferred control of the asset.
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-
through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risk and rewards of ownership of the
asset. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor
transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the
Group's continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The
transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations
that the Group has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Impairment of financial assets
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. An impairment exists if one or more events that occurred after
the initial recognition of the asset have an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the
group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that a
debtor or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or
principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and
observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as
changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
Financial assets carried at amortised cost
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the Group first assesses whether impairment exists individually
for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually
significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed
financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit
risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for
impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective
assessment of impairment.
The amount of any impairment loss identified is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying
amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not yet
been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset's
original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition).
The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the loss is
recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying
amount using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the
impairment loss. Loans and receivables together with any associated allowance are written off when there is no
realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Group.
Include other criteria for writing off amounts charged to the allowance account against the carrying amount of
impaired financial assets
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an
event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or
reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a write-off is later recovered, the recovery is credited to other
expenses in the statement of profit or loss.
Assets carried at cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity instrument that
is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured, or on a derivative asset that is
linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument, the amount of the loss is
measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future
cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Impairment losses on
these assets are not reversed.
Available-for-sale financial investments
For available-for-sale financial investments, the Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether
there is objective evidence that an investment or a group of investments is impaired.
If an available-for-sale asset is impaired, an amount comprising the difference between its cost (net of any
principal payment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in
the statement of profit or loss, is removed from other comprehensive income and recognised in the statement of
profit or loss.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Impairment of financial assets (continued)
Available-for-sale financial investments (continued)
In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, objective evidence would include a significant
or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment below its cost. “Significant” is evaluated against the
original cost of the investment and “prolonged” against the period in which the fair value has been below its
original cost. Where there is evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously
recognised in the statement of profit or loss – is removed from other comprehensive income and recognised in
the statement of profit or loss. Impairment losses on equity instruments classified as available for sale are not
reversed through the statement of profit or loss. Increases in their fair value after impairment are recognised
directly in other comprehensive income.
The determination of what is “significant” or “prolonged” requires judgement. In making this judgement, the
Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration or extent to which the fair value of an investment is less
than its cost.
In the case of debt instruments classified as available for sale, impairment is assessed based on the same
criteria as financial assets carried at amortised cost. However, the amount recorded for impairment is the
cumulative loss measured as the difference between the amortised cost and the current fair value, less any
impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Future interest
income continues to be accrued based on the reduced carrying amount of the asset using the rate of interest
used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is
recorded as part of finance income. Impairment losses on debt instruments are reversed through the statement
of profit or loss if the subsequent increase in fair value of the instruments can be objectively related to an event
occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss,
loans and borrowings, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as
appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, net of
directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, an amount due to the ultimate holding
company, derivative financial instruments and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings.

The disclosure required in HKFRS 7.21 may include: 1. for financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss:
a. the nature of the financial liabilities the entity has designated as at fair value through profit or loss
b. the criteria for so designating such financial liabilities on initial recognition c. how the entity has satisfied the conditions for such designation:

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Financial liabilities (continued)
Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial
liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of repurchasing in the
near term. This category includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the Group that are not
designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by HKAS 39. Separated embedded
derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit or loss. The net fair value
gain or loss recognised in the statement of profit or loss does not include any interest charged on these financial
liabilities.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the
date of initial recognition and only if the criteria in HKAS 39 are satisfied.
Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost,
using the effective interest rate method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they
are stated at cost. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the liabilities are
derecognised as well as through the effective interest rate amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs
that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortisation is included in
finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.
Financial guarantee contracts
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Group are those contracts that require a payment to be made to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in
accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. A financial guarantee contract is recognised initially as a
liability at its fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the
guarantee. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group measures the financial guarantee contract at the higher
of: (i) the amount of the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of
the reporting period; and (ii) the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation.
Convertible bonds
The component of convertible bonds that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the
statement of financial position, net of transaction costs. On issuance of convertible bonds, the fair value of the
liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond; and this amount is
carried as a long term liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The
remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders'
equity, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent
years. Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible bonds
based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are first
recognised.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
31 December 2017
2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Financial liabilities (continued)
Convertible bonds (continued)
(Where the convertible bonds contain only liability and derivative components) If the conversion option of
convertible bonds exhibits characteristics of an embedded derivative, it is separated from its liability
component. On initial recognition, the derivative component of the convertible bonds is measured at fair value
and presented as part of derivative financial instruments. Any excess of proceeds over the amount initially
recognised as the derivative component is recognised as the liability component. Transaction costs are
apportioned between the liability and derivative components of the convertible bonds based on the allocation
of proceeds to the liability and derivative components when the instruments are initially recognised. The
portion of the transaction costs relating to the liability component is recognised initially as part of the liability.
The portion relating to the derivative component is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled, or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms,
or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a
derecognition of the original liability and a recognition of a new liability, and the difference between the
respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial
position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention
to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement
The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts and interest rate swaps, to
hedge its foreign currency risk and interest rate risk, respectively. Such derivative financial instruments are
initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently
remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities
when the fair value is negative.
The fair value of commodity purchase contracts that meet the definition of a derivative as defined by HKAS 39
is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as cost of sales. Commodity contracts that are entered into and
continue to be held for the purpose of the receipt or delivery of a non-financial item in accordance with the
Group’s expected purchase, sale or usage requirements are held at cost.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of derivatives are taken directly to the statement of profit
or loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in other comprehensive
income and later reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or liability
or an unrecognised firm commitment; or
cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a
particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction, or a
foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment; or
hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (continued)
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement (continued)
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship
to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting, the risk management objective and its strategy for
undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item
or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Group will assess the hedging instrument's
effectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the
hedged item's fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly
effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to
determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they
were designated.
Hedges which meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows:
Fair value hedges
The change in the fair value of a hedging derivative is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other
expenses. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as a part
of the carrying amount of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other
expenses.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, the adjustment to carrying value is amortised
through the statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the effective interest rate
method. Effective interest rate amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and shall begin no later
than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being
hedged. If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in the
statement of profit or loss.
When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in
the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or liability with a
corresponding gain or loss recognised in the statement of profit or loss. The changes in the fair value of the
hedging instrument are also recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised directly in other
comprehensive income in the hedging reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the
statement of profit or loss.
Amounts recognised in other comprehensive income are transferred to the statement of profit or loss when the
hedged transaction affects profit or loss, such as when hedged financial income or financial expense is
recognised or when a forecast sale occurs. Where the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-
financial liability, the amounts recognised in other comprehensive income are transferred to the initial carrying
amount of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.
Where the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the amounts recognised in
other comprehensive income are transferred to the statement of profit or loss in the same period or periods
during which the asset acquired or liability assumed affects the statement of profit or loss.
If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover (as part of
the hedging strategy), or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income remain in
other comprehensive income until the forecast transaction occurs or the foreign currency firm commitment is
met.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (continued)
Hedges of a net investment
Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item that is accounted for
as part of the net investment, are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on the
hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognised in other comprehensive
income while any gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognised in the statement of profit or
loss. On disposal of the foreign operation, the cumulative value of any such gains or losses recorded in equity
is transferred to the statement of profit or loss.
Current versus non-current classification
Derivative instruments that are not designated as effective hedging instruments are classified as current or non-
current or separated into current and non-current portions based on an assessment of the facts and
circumstances (i.e., the underlying contracted cash flows).
Where the Group expects to hold a derivative as an economic hedge (and does not apply hedge
accounting) for a period beyond 12 months after the end of the reporting period, the derivative is classified
as non-current (or separated into current and non-current portions) consistently with the classification of
the underlying item.
Embedded derivatives that are not closely related to the host contract are classified consistently with the
cash flows of the host contract.
Derivative instruments that are designated as, and are effective hedging instruments, are classified
consistently with the classification of the underlying hedged item. The derivative instruments are
separated into current portions and non-current portions only if a reliable allocation can be made.
Treasury shares
Own equity instruments which are reacquired and held by the Company or the Group (treasury shares) are
recognised directly in equity at cost. No gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss on the
purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group's own equity instruments.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out
basis and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, comprises direct materials, direct labour and an
appropriate proportion of overheads. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling prices less any
estimated costs to be incurred to completion and disposal.
Cost of inventories includes the transfer from equity of gains and losses on qualifying cash flow hedges in
respect of the purchases of raw materials.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on
hand and demand deposits, and short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known
amounts of cash, are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity of generally
within three months when acquired, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral
part of the Group's cash management.
For the purpose of the consolidated statement of financial position, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash
on hand and at banks, including term deposits, and assets similar in nature to cash, which are not restricted as
to use.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Provisions
A provision is recognised when a present obligation (legal or constructive) has arisen as a result of a past event
and it is probable that a future outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, provided that a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the effect of discounting is material, the amount recognised for a provision is the present value at the end
of the reporting period of the future expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. The increase
in the discounted present value amount arising from the passage of time is included in finance costs in the
statement of profit or loss.
Provisions for product warranties granted by the Group on certain products are recognised based on sales
volume and past experience of the level of repairs and returns, discounted to their present values as
appropriate.
A contingent liability recognised in a business combination is initially measured at its fair value.
Subsequently, it is measured at the higher of (i) the amount that would be recognised in accordance with the
general guidance for provisions above; and (ii) the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate,
cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance with the guidance for revenue recognition.
Income tax
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is
recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the
taxation authorities, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the reporting period, taking into consideration interpretations and practices prevailing in the countries in
which the Group operates.
Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the end of the reporting
period between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting
purposes.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
when the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and
joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is
probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused tax
credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused
tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the
transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and
joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary
differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the
temporary differences can be utilised.

(66)
HONG KONG LISTED LIMITED
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
31 December 2017
2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income tax (continued)
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting
period and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that sufficient taxable profit will be
available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if and only if the Group has a legally enforceable right
to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different
taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the
assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax
liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be
received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is
recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the costs, which it is intended to compensate,
are expensed.
Where the grant relates to an asset, the fair value is credited to a deferred income account and is released to
the statement of profit or loss over the expected useful life of the relevant asset by equal annual instalments or
deducted from the carrying amount of the asset and released to the statement of profit or loss by way of a
reduced depreciation charge.
Where the Group receives grants of non-monetary assets, the grants are recorded at the fair value of the non-
monetary assets and released to the statement of profit or loss over the expected useful lives of the relevant
assets by equal annual instalments.
Where the Group receives government loans granted with no or at a below-market rate of interest for the
construction of a qualifying asset, the initial carrying amount of the government loans is determined using the
effective interest rate method, as further explained in the accounting policy for “Financial liabilities” above.
The benefit of the government loans granted with no or at a below-market rate of interest, which is the
difference between the initial carrying value of the loans and the proceeds received, is treated as a
government grant and released to the statement of profit or loss over the expected useful life of the relevant
asset by equal annual instalments.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and when the
revenue can be measured reliably, on the following bases:
(a) from the sale of goods, when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to
the buyer, provided that the Group maintains neither managerial involvement to the degree usually
associated with ownership, nor effective control over the goods sold;
(b) from construction contracts, on the percentage of completion basis, as further explained in the
accounting policy for “Construction contracts” below;
(c) from the rendering of services, on the percentage of completion basis, as further explained in the
accounting policy for “Contracts for services” below;
(d) rental income, on a time proportion basis over the lease terms;
(e) interest income, on an accrual basis using the effective interest method by applying the rate that
exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument
or a shorter period, when appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset; and
(f) dividend income, when the shareholders' right to receive payment has been established.
Construction contracts
Contract revenue comprises the agreed contract amount and appropriate amounts from variation orders, claims
and incentive payments. Contract costs incurred comprise direct materials, the costs of subcontracting, direct
labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed construction overheads.
Revenue from fixed price construction contracts is recognised using the percentage of completion method,
measured by reference to the proportion of costs incurred to date to the estimated total cost of the relevant
contract.
Or
Revenue from fixed price construction contracts is recognised using the percentage of completion
method, measured by reference to the labour hours incurred to date to the estimated total labour hours
of the relevant contract.
Revenue from cost plus construction contracts is recognised using the percentage of completion method, by
reference to the recoverable costs incurred during the period plus the related fee earned, measured by the
proportion of costs incurred to date to the estimated total cost of the relevant contract.
Provision is made for foreseeable losses as soon as they are anticipated by management. Where contract
costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses exceed progress billings, the surplus is
treated as an amount due from contract customers. Where progress billings exceed contract costs incurred to
date plus recognised profits less recognised losses, the surplus is treated as an amount due to contract
customers.
Contracts for services
Contract revenue on the rendering of services comprises the agreed contract amount. Costs of rendering
services comprise labour and other costs of personnel directly engaged in providing the services and
attributable overheads.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
31 December 2017
2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Contracts for services (continued)
Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised based on the percentage of completion of the
transaction, provided that the revenue, the costs incurred and the estimated costs to completion can be
measured reliably. The percentage of completion is established by reference to the costs incurred to date as
compared to the total costs to be incurred under the transaction. Where the outcome of a contract cannot be
measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that the expenses incurred are eligible to be
recovered.
Provision is made for foreseeable losses as soon as they are anticipated by management. Where contract
costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses exceed progress billings, the surplus is
treated as an amount due from contract customers. Where progress billings exceed contract costs incurred to
date plus recognised profits less recognised losses, the surplus is treated as an amount due to contract
customers.
Share-based payments
The Company operates a share option scheme for the purpose of providing incentives and rewards to eligible
participants who contribute to the success of the Group's operations. Employees (including directors) of the
Group receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services as
consideration for equity instruments (“equity-settled transactions”).
The cost of equity-settled transactions with employees for grants after 7 November 2002 is measured by reference
to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using a
binomial model, further details of which are given in note 39 to the financial statements.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised in employee benefit expense, together with a
corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are
fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at the end of each reporting period
until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group's best estimate
of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The charge or credit to the statement of profit or
loss for a period represents the movement in the cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end
of that period.
Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date
fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best
estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are
reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated
service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the
fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or
performance conditions.
For awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not
been met, no expense is recognised. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the
transactions are treated as vesting irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied,
provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms
had not been modified, if the original terms of the award are met. In addition, an expense is recognised for any
modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payments, or is otherwise beneficial to the
employee as measured at the date of modification.

Employee benefits A listed issuer shall include the following information in addition to the information required under the relevant accounting standard in respect of pension schemes: 1. a brief outline of how contributions are calculated or benefits funded 2. in the case of defined contribution schemes, details of whether forfeited contributions (by
employers on behalf of employees who leave the scheme prior to vesting fully in such contributions) may be used by the employer to reduce the existing level of contributions and if so, the amounts so utilised in the course of the year and available at the date of statement of financial position for such use

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Share-based payments (continued)
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any
expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. This includes any award where non-
vesting conditions within the control of either the Group or the employee are not met. However, if a new award
is substituted for the cancelled award, and is designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted,
the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in
the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings
per share.
(Accounting policy for cash-settled transactions) The cost of cash-settled transactions is measured initially at
fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes formula, taking into account the terms and conditions upon
which the instruments were granted (note 39). The fair value is expensed over the period until the vesting
date with recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability is measured at the end of each reporting period
up to and including the settlement date, with changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Other employee benefits
Pension scheme
The Group operates a defined contribution Mandatory Provident Fund retirement benefit scheme (the “MPF
Scheme”) under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance for all of its employees. Contributions are
made based on a percentage of the employees' basic salaries and are charged to the statement of profit or loss
as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the MPF Scheme. The assets of the MPF Scheme are
held separately from those of the Group in an independently administered fund. The Group's employer
contributions vest fully with the employees when contributed into the MPF Scheme.
Or
The Group's employer contributions vest fully with the employees when contributed into the MPF Scheme,
except for the Group's employer voluntary contributions, which are refunded to the Group when the
employee leaves employment prior to the contributions vesting fully, in accordance with the rules of the MPF
Scheme.
The employees of the Group's subsidiary which operates in Mainland China are required to participate in a
central pension scheme operated by the local municipal government. This subsidiary is required to
contribute 5% of its payroll costs to the central pension scheme. The contributions are charged to the
statement of profit or loss as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the central pension
scheme.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those
benefits and when the Group recognises restructuring costs involving the payment of termination benefits.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, i.e.,
assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are
capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. The capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the
assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary
investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the
borrowing costs capitalised. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of
funds.
Where funds have been borrowed generally, and used for the purpose of obtaining qualifying assets, a
capitalisation rate ranging between 5% and 13% has been applied to the expenditure on the individual
assets.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Dividends
Final dividends are recognised as a liability when they are approved by the shareholders in a general meeting.
Proposed final dividends are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Interim dividends are simultaneously proposed and declared, because the Company's memorandum and
articles of association grant the directors the authority to declare interim dividends. Consequently, interim
dividends are recognised immediately as a liability when they are proposed and declared.
Foreign currencies
These financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars, which is the Company's functional currency. Each
entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each
entity are measured using that functional currency. Foreign currency transactions recorded by the entities in the
Group are initially recorded using their respective functional currency rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional
currency rates of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. Differences arising on settlement or
translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit or loss
with the exception of monetary items that are designated as part of the hedge of the Group’s net investment of a
foreign operation. These are recognised in other comprehensive income until the net investment is disposed of,
at which time the cumulative amount is reclassified to the statement of profit or loss. Tax charges and credits
attributable to exchange differences on those monetary items are also recorded in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured. The gain or loss
arising on translation of a non-monetary item measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the
gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation difference on the item whose fair value gain or loss
is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income or
profit or loss, respectively).
The functional currencies of certain overseas subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are currencies other
than the Hong Kong dollar. As at the end of the reporting period, the assets and liabilities of these entities are
translated into Hong Kong dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period and their
statements of profit or loss are translated into Hong Kong dollars at the weighted average exchange rates for
the year.
Or
…their statements of profit or loss are translated into Hong Kong dollars at exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions.
The resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the
exchange fluctuation reserve. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive
income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities arising on acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation
and translated at the closing rate.

Judgements
An entity shall disclose, along with its significant accounting policies or other notes, the judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that management has made in the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements
HKAS1.122
Commentary: For example, management makes judgements in determining: 1. whether financial assets are held-to-maturity investments 2. when substantially all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of financial assets and
lease assets are transferred to other entities 3. whether, in substance, particular sales of goods are financing arrangements and therefore do
not give rise to revenue

When classification is difficult, the criteria an entity uses to distinguish investment property from owner-occupied property and from property held for sale in the ordinary course of business
HKAS40.75(c) &HKAS1.124
An entity shall disclose information about significant judgements and assumptions it has made (and changes to those judgements and assumptions) in determining: 1. that it has control of another entity, i.e., an investee as described in HKFRS 10.5 and
HKFRS 10.6 2. that it has joint control of an arrangement or significant influence over another entity; and 3. the type of joint arrangement (i.e., joint operation or joint venture) when the arrangement has
been structured through a separate vehicle
To comply with HKFRS 12.7, an entity shall disclose, for example, significant judgements and assumptions made in determining that: 1. it does not control another entity even though it holds more than half of the voting rights of the
other entity 2. it controls another entity even though it holds less than half of the voting rights of the other entity 3. it is an agent or a principal 4. it does not have significant influence even though it holds 20 per cent or more of the voting
rights of another entity 5. it has significant influence even though it holds less than 20 per cent of the voting rights of
another entity
The significant judgements and assumptions disclosed in accordance with HKFRS 12.7 include those
made by the entity when changes in facts and circumstances are such that the conclusion about
whether it has control, joint control or significant influence changes during the reporting period
Commentary:
Hong Kong Listed Limited does not have any interest in unconsolidated structured entities.
Whenever a reporting entity has interests in such entities, it is required to provide the disclosures in
HKFRS 12.24 to HKFRS 12.31 (see HKFRS 12.B25-B26 for application guidance on disclosures)

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Foreign currencies (continued)
For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the cash flows of overseas subsidiaries are
translated into Hong Kong dollars at the exchange rates ruling at the dates of the cash flows. Frequently
recurring cash flows of overseas subsidiaries which arise throughout the year are translated into Hong Kong
dollars at the weighted average exchange rates for the year.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Group's financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and their
accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions
and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the
assets or liabilities affected in the future.
Judgements
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements,
apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the
financial statements:
Operating lease commitments – Group as lessor
The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment property portfolio. The Group has
determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, that it retains all the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are leased out on operating leases.
Classification between investment properties and owner-occupied properties
The Group determines whether a property qualifies as an investment property, and has developed criteria in
making that judgement. Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or
both. Therefore, the Group considers whether a property generates cash flows largely independently of the
other assets held by the Group. Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital
appreciation and another portion that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for
administrative purposes. If these portions could be sold separately or leased out separately under a finance
lease, the Group accounts for the portions separately. If the portions could not be sold separately, the property
is an investment property only if an insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or
services or for administrative purposes. Judgement is made on an individual property basis to determine
whether ancillary services are so significant that a property does not qualify as an investment property.
Consolidation of entities in which the Group holds less than a majority of voting rights
The Group considers that it controls GGG Limited even though it owns less than 50% of the voting rights. This is
because the Group is the single largest shareholder of GGG Limited with a 48% equity interest. The remaining
52% of the equity shares in GGG Limited are widely held by many other shareholders, none of which individually
hold more than 1% of the equity shares (since the date of the acquisition of the 48% equity interest in GGG
Limited by the Group). Since the date of acquisition, there has been no history of the other shareholders
collaborating to exercise their votes collectively or to outvote the Group.
Include other judgements as appropriate, e.g., judgements regarding revenue recognition, lease classification,
classification as assets or a disposal group held for sale, recognition of deferred tax assets, a deferred tax
liability for withholding taxes and whether the presumption that investment properties stated at fair value are
recovered through sale is rebutted in determining deferred tax, how a service concession arrangement is
classified, accounting for an arrangement containing a lease, how the type of a joint arrangement and
consolidation or non-consolidation of a structured entity are determined
71
Estimation uncertainty
An entity shall disclose information about the assumptions it makes about the future, and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. In respect of those assets and liabilities, the notes shall include details of: 1. their nature 2. their carrying amount as at the end of the reporting period
HKAS1.125 -(a) -(b)
Commentary:
The nature and extent of the information provided vary according to the nature of the assumption and other circumstances. Examples of the types of disclosures an entity makes to help users of financial statements to understand the judgements that management makes about the future and about other sources of estimation uncertainty are: 1. the nature of the assumption or other estimation uncertainty 2. the sensitivity of carrying amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying their
calculation, including the reasons for the sensitivity 3. the expected resolution of an uncertainty and the range of reasonably possible outcomes within
the next financial year in respect of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities affected 4. an explanation of changes made to past assumptions concerning those assets and liabilities, if
the uncertainty remains unresolved
HKAS1.129 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d)
Commentary: The disclosures in HKAS 1.125 are not required for assets and liabilities with a significant risk that their carrying amounts might change materially within the next financial year if, at the end of the reporting period, they are measured at fair value based on a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability
HKAS1.128
Change in accounting estimates
An entity shall disclose the nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate that has an effect in the current period or is expected to have an effect in future periods, except for the disclosure of the effect on future periods when it is impracticable to estimate that effect
HKAS8.39
If the amount of the effect in future periods is not disclosed because estimating it is impracticable, an entity shall disclose that fact
HKAS8.40
lf an estimate of an amount reported in an interim period is changed significantly during the final interim period of the financial year but a separate financial report is not published for that final interim period, the nature and amount of that change in estimate shall be disclosed in a note to the annual financial statements for that financial year
HKAS34.26
If an accounting estimate reported in prior interim period of the current financial year is changed during the subsequent interim period of the same financial year and has a material effect in that subsequent interim period, the nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate that has a material effect in the current financial year or which is expected to have a material effect in subsequent periods should be disclosed. If it is impracticable to quantify the amount, this fact should be disclosed

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (continued)
Estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the
reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below.
Impairment of goodwill
The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of
the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use
requires the Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating units and
also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying
amount of goodwill at 31 December 2017 was HK$245,000 (2016: HK$1,000,000). Further details are given in
note 17. (Consider including the range of reasonably possible outcomes within the next financial year and the
sensitivity of carrying amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying the calculation, including
the reasons for the sensitivity if not otherwise disclosed in note 17)
Estimation of fair value of investment properties
In the absence of current prices in an active market for similar properties, the Group considers information
from a variety of sources, including:
(a) current prices in an active market for properties of a different nature, condition or location, adjusted to
reflect those differences;
(b) recent prices of similar properties on less active markets, with adjustments to reflect any changes in
economic conditions since the date of the transactions that occurred at those prices; and
(c) discounted cash flow projections based on reliable estimates of future cash flows, supported by the
terms of any existing lease and other contracts and (when possible) by external evidence such as
current market rents for similar properties in the same location and condition, and using discount rates
that reflect current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows.
The carrying amount of investment properties at 31 December 2017 was HK$... (2016: HK$...). Further
details, including the key assumptions used for fair value measurement and a sensitivity analysis, are given in
note … to the financial statements.
Impairment of non-financial assets (other than goodwill)
The Group assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all non-financial assets at the end of
each reporting period. Indefinite life intangible assets are tested for impairment annually and at other times
when such an indicator exists. Other non-financial assets are tested for impairment when there are indicators
that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset
or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of
disposal and its value in use. The calculation of the fair value less costs of disposal is based on available data
from binding sales transactions in an arm’s length transaction of similar assets or observable market prices
less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. When value in use calculations are undertaken,
management must estimate the expected future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and choose
a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. Further details, including a
sensitivity analysis of key assumptions, are given in note … to the financial statements.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (continued)
Estimation uncertainty (continued)
Deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to
determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level
of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. The carrying value of deferred tax
assets relating to recognised tax losses at 31 December 2017 was HK$... (2016: HK$...). The amount of
unrecognised tax losses at 31 December 2017 was HK$... (2016: HK$...). Further details are contained in
note 37 to the financial statements.
Fair value of unlisted equity investments
The unlisted equity investments have been valued based on the expected cash flows discounted at current
rates applicable for items with similar terms and risk characteristics. This valuation requires the Group to
make estimates about expected future cash flows, credit risk, volatility and discount rates, and hence they
are subject to uncertainty. The fair value of the unlisted equity investments at 31 December 2017 was
HK$... (2016: HK$...). Further details are included in note 21 to the financial statements.
Impairment of available-for-sale financial assets
The Group classifies certain assets as available for sale and recognises movements of their fair values in
equity. When the fair value declines, management makes assumptions about the decline in value to
determine whether there is an impairment that should be recognised in the statement of profit or loss. At 31
December 2017, impairment losses of HK$... have been recognised for available-for-sale assets (2016: Nil).
The carrying amount of available-for-sale assets was HK$... (2016: HK$...).
Development costs
Development costs are capitalised in accordance with the accounting policy for research and development
costs in note 2.4 to the financial statements. Determining the amounts to be capitalised requires
management to make assumptions regarding the expected future cash generation of the assets, discount
rates to be applied and the expected period of benefits. At 31 December 2017, the best estimate of the
carrying amount of capitalised development costs was HK$... (2016: HK$...).
Include other estimates as appropriate, e.g., estimates regarding warranty provisions, the outcome of
construction contracts, assessment of useful lives of property, plant and equipment, impairment of trade
receivables, measurement of defined benefit obligations and fair value measurement of other financial
instruments

Segment information – general disclosures If a financial report contains both the consolidated financial statements of a parent that is within the scope of HKFRS 8 as well as the parent’s separate financial statements, segment information is required only in the consolidated financial statements
HKFRS8.4
An entity shall disclose the following general information: 1. factors used to identify the entity’s reportable segments, including the basis of organisation (for
example, whether management has chosen to organise the entity around differences in products and services, geographical areas, regulatory environments, or a combination of factors and whether operating segments have been aggregated)
2. the judgements made by management in applying the aggregation criteria in HKFRS 8.12. This includes a brief description of the operating segments that have been aggregated in this way and the economic indicators that have been assessed in determining that the aggregated operating segments share similar economic characteristics
3. types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenues
HKFRS8.22 -(a) -(aa) -(b)
An entity shall report a measure of profit or loss for each reportable segment. An entity shall report a measure of total assets and liabilities for each reportable segment if such amounts are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker

Information about other business activities and operating segments that are not reportable shall be combined and disclosed in an “all other segments” category separately from other reconciling items. The sources of the revenue included in the “all other segments” category shall be described
HKFRS8.16
Commentary: If the total external revenue reported by operating segments constitutes less than 75% of the entity’s revenue, additional operating segments shall be identified as reportable segments (even if they do not meet the criteria in HKFRS 8.13) until at least 75% of the entity’s revenue is included in reportable segments

4. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION
For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their products and services
and has four reportable operating segments as follows:
(a) the electronic products segment is a supplier of electronic components mainly for use in the
manufacture of audio and video products;
(b) the industrial products segment produces machinery for use in automated production lines in the
textile industry;
(c) the property investment segment invests in prime office space for its rental income potential; and
(d) the “others” segment comprises, principally, the Group's management services business, which
provides management and security services to residential and commercial properties.
Management monitors the results of the Group’s operating segments separately for the purpose of making
decisions about resources allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based
on reportable segment profit/loss, which is a measure of adjusted profit/loss before tax from continuing
operations. The adjusted profit/loss before tax from continuing operations is measured consistently with the
Group’s profit before tax from continuing operations except that interest income, finance costs, dividend
income, fair value gains/losses from the Group’s financial instruments as well as head office and corporate
expenses are excluded from such measurement.
Segment assets exclude deferred tax assets, tax recoverable, pledged deposits, cash and cash equivalents,
equity investments at fair value through profit or loss, derivative financial instruments and other unallocated
head office and corporate assets as these assets are managed on a group basis.
Segment liabilities exclude derivative financial instruments, interest-bearing bank and other borrowings, an
amount due to the ultimate holding company, convertible bonds, tax payable, deferred tax liabilities and other
unallocated head office and corporate liabilities as these liabilities are managed on a group basis.
Intersegment sales and transfers are transacted with reference to the selling prices used for sales made to third
parties at the then prevailing market prices.
74
Segment information – general disclosures (continued)
An entity shall disclose the following about each reportable segment if the specified amounts are included in the measure of segment profit or loss reviewed by the chief operating decision maker; or are otherwise regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker; even if not included in that measure of segment profit or loss: 1. revenues from external customers 2. revenues from transactions with other operating segments of the same entity 3. interest revenue 4. interest expense 5. depreciation and amortisation 6. material items of income and expense 7. the entity’s interest in the profit or loss of associates and joint ventures accounted for by the
equity method 8. income tax expense or income 9. material non-cash items other than depreciation and amortisation

An entity shall report interest revenue separately from interest expense for each reportable segment unless a majority of the segment’s revenues are from interest and the chief operating decision maker relies primarily on net interest revenue to assess the performance of the segment and make decision about resources to be allocated to the segment An entity shall disclose the following about each reportable segment if the specified amounts are included in the measure of segment assets reviewed by the chief operating decision maker or are otherwise regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, even if not included in the measure of segment assets: 1. the amount of investment in associates and joint ventures accounted for by the equity method 2. the amounts of additions to non-current assets other than financial instruments, deferred tax
assets, post-employment benefit assets and rights arising under insurance contracts
HKFRS8.23 HKFRS8.24 -(a) -(b)
An entity shall provide an explanation of the measurements of segment profit or loss, segment assets and segment liabilities for each reportable segment. At a minimum, an entity shall disclose the following: 1. the basis of accounting for any transactions between reportable segments 2. the nature of any differences between the measurements of the reportable segments’ profits or
losses and the entity’s profit or loss before income tax expense or income and discontinued operations (if not apparent from the reconciliations described in HKFRS 8.28). Those differences could include accounting policies and policies for allocation of centrally incurred costs that are necessary for an understanding of the reported segment information
3. the nature of any differences between the measurements of the reportable segments’ assets and the entity’s assets (if not apparent from the reconciliations described in HKFRS 8.28). Those differences could include accounting policies and policies for allocation of jointly used assets that are necessary for an understanding of the reported segment information
4. the nature of any differences between the measurements of the reportable segments’ liabilities and the entity’s liabilities (if not apparent from the reconciliations described in HKFRS 8.28). Those differences could include accounting policies and policies for allocation of jointly utilised liabilities that are necessary for an understanding of the reported segment information
5. the nature of any changes from prior periods in the measurement methods used to determine reported segment profit or loss and the effect, if any, of those changes on the measure of segment profit or loss
6. the nature and effect of any asymmetrical allocations to reportable segments. For example, an entity might allocate depreciation expense to a segment without allocating the related depreciable assets to that segment
HKFRS8.27 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) -(e) -(f)
An entity that reports segment information in accordance with HKFRS 8 shall disclose the following for each reportable segment: 1. the amount of impairment losses recognised in profit or loss and in other comprehensive income
during the period 2. the amount of reversals of impairment losses recognised in profit or loss and in other
comprehensive income during the period

Segment information – reconciliation
An entity shall provide reconciliations of all of the following: 1. the total of the reportable segments’ revenues to the entity’s revenue 2. the total of the reportable segments’ measures of profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss before
tax expense (tax income) and discontinued operations. However, if an entity allocates to reportable segments items such as tax expense (tax income), the entity may reconcile the total of the segments’ measures of profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss after those items
3. the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets if the segment assets are reported in accordance with HKFRS 8.23
4. the total of the reportable segments’ liabilities to the entity’s liabilities if segment liabilities are reported
5. the total of the reportable segments’ amounts for every other material item of information disclosed to the corresponding amount for the entity
All material reconciling items shall be separately identified and described. For example, the amount of each material adjustment needed to reconcile reportable segment profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss arising from different accounting policies shall be separately identified and described
HKFRS8.28 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) -(e) HKFRS8.28
Segment information – change in reporting structure or restatement
If management judges that an operating segment identified as a reportable segment in the immediately preceding period is of continuing significance, information about that segment shall continue to be reported separately in the current period even if it no longer meets the quantitative thresholds for reportability in HKFRS 8.13
HKFRS8.17
If an operating segment is identified as a reportable segment in the current period in accordance with the quantitative thresholds, segment data for a prior period presented for comparative purposes shall be restated to reflect the newly reportable segment as a separate segment, even if that segment did not satisfy the quantitative thresholds for reportability in HKFRS 8.13 in the prior period, unless the necessary information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive
HKFRS8.18
If an entity changes the structure of its internal organisation in a manner that causes the composition of its reportable segments to change, the corresponding information for earlier periods, including interim periods, shall be restated unless the information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive. The determination of whether the information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive shall be made for each individual item of disclosure. Following a change in the composition of its reportable segments, an entity shall disclose whether it has restated the corresponding items of segment information for earlier periods
HKFRS8.29
If an entity has changed the structure of its internal organisation in a manner that causes the composition of its reportable segments to change and if segment information for earlier periods, including interim periods, is not restated to reflect the change, the entity shall disclose in the year in which the change occurs segment information for the current period on both the old basis and the new basis of segmentation, unless the necessary information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive

Segment information – entity-wide disclosures
Information required by HKFRS 8.32 to HKFRS 8.34 below shall be provided only if it is not provided as part of the reportable segment information required by HKFRS 8
HKFRS8.31
Segment information – entity-wide disclosures – products and services
An entity shall report the revenues from external customers for each product and service, or each group of similar products and services, unless the necessary information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive, in which case that fact shall be disclosed. The amounts of revenues reported shall be based on the financial information used to produce the entity’s financial statements
HKFRS8.32
Segment information – entity-wide disclosures – geographical areas
An entity shall report the following geographical information, unless the necessary information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive: 1. revenues from external customers (i) attributed to the entity’s country of domicile and (ii)
attributed to all foreign countries in total from which the entity derives revenues. If revenues from external customers attributed to an individual foreign country are material, those revenues shall be disclosed separately. An entity shall disclose the basis for attributing revenues from external customers to individual countries
2. non-current assets other than financial instruments, deferred tax assets, post-employment benefit assets, and rights arising under insurance contracts (i) located in the entity’s country of domicile and (ii) located in all foreign countries in total in which the entity holds assets. If assets in an individual foreign country are material, those assets shall be disclosed separately
The amounts reported shall be based on the financial information that is used to produce the entity’s financial statements. If the necessary information is not available and the cost to develop it would be excessive, that fact shall be disclosed. An entity may provide, in addition to the information required by HKFRS 8.33, subtotals of geographical information about groups of countries Commentary: While HKFRS 8 does not define the term “country of domicile”, it is often referred to as the country where a company is registered. If an entity does not generate significant revenue from its place of incorporation nor does it have any establishment in its place of incorporation (for example, an investment holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with its operations carried out outside the Cayman Islands), judgement will be required to determine the most appropriate disclosure; for example, it might be considered to be the country in which the majority of a group’s operations are located. Where the basis of designation is not clear, an explanation should be disclosed
HKFRS8.33 -(a) -(b) HKFRS8.33
Segment information – entity-wide disclosures – major customers
An entity shall provide information about the extent of its reliance on its major customers. If revenues from transactions with a single external customer amount to 10% or more of an entity’s revenues, the entity shall disclose that fact, the total amount of revenues from each such customer, and the identity of the segment or segments reporting the revenues. The entity need not disclose the identity of a major customer or the amount of revenues that each segment reports from that customer. For the purposes of HKFRS 8, a group of entities known to a reporting entity to be under common control shall be considered a single customer. However, judgement is required to assess whether a government (including government agencies and similar bodies whether local, national or international) and entities known to the reporting entity to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer. In assessing this, the reporting entity shall consider the extent of economic integration between those entities

The circumstances of the entity may also warrant the inclusion of other amounts, such as distribution costs
HKAS2.38

An entity shall disclose the accounting treatment applied to any fee received, the amount recognised as income in the period, and the line item of the statement of comprehensive income in which it is included
HK(SIC)- 27.10(b)
The disclosures required in accordance with HK(SIC)-27.10 shall be provided individually for each arrangement or in aggregate for each class of arrangement. A class is a grouping of arrangements with underlying assets of a similar nature
HK(SIC)-27.11
In the case of an operating lease, if a purchaser concludes that it is impracticable to separate the payments (payments for the lease from payments for other elements in the arrangement) reliably, treat all payments under the arrangement as lease payments for the purposes of complying with the disclosure requirements of HKAS 17, but: 1. disclose those payments separately from minimum lease payments of other arrangements that
do not include payments for non-lease elements 2. state that the disclosed payments also include payments for non-lease elements in the
arrangement

Auditor’s remuneration
A company’s financial statements for a financial year must state, under a separate heading, the amount of the remuneration of the auditor. Remuneration, in relation to an auditor of a company, includes any sums paid by the company in respect of the auditor’s expenses
Sch4.Part2.1 (1)&(2)
A listed issuer (whether or not it is incorporated in Hong Kong) shall include disclosures of remuneration of auditor required under Schedule 4 Part 2(1) of the Companies Ordinance in financial statements Commentary: In accordance with paragraph M of Appendix 14 Corporate governance report of the Listing Rules (GEM paragraph M of Appendix 15), listed issuers shall include in the corporate governance report an analysis of remuneration in respect of audit and non-audit services provided by the auditors (including any entity that is under common control, ownership or management with the audit firm or any entity that a reasonable and informed third party having knowledge of all relevant information would reasonably conclude as part of the audit firm nationally or internationally) to the issuer. The analysis must include, in respect of each significant non-audit service assignment, details of the nature of the services and the fees paid. The above disclosure requirement under the Companies Ordinance, which is required to be included in the financial statements, is not specifically defined. However, it has by convention in the past been deemed to relate to audit services only. Whilst not specifically required, a further analysis in the financial statements would however be acceptable

Commentary: HKFRS 7 does not prescribe whether interest and dividends must be included within net gains or losses for financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, or in interest or dividend income. The presentation adopted should be consistently applied from year to year and the accounting policy of which shall be disclosed.

A16(24) /GEM18.28 -(1) -(2) -(3) -(4) -(5)
-(6)
Commentary:
1. Although HKFRS 2 prescribes the accounting for share options by the issuer, the standard does not consider how the “benefit” to the holder should be determined or disclosed in the remuneration note. Accordingly, more than one approach may be used in the remuneration note. The approach adopted however should be consistently applied and appropriately disclosed
2. If an entity obtains key management personnel services from another entity (the “management entity”), the entity is not required to apply the requirements in HKAS 24.17 as listed on page (85) to the compensation paid or payable by the management entity to the management entity’s employees or directors
3. Emoluments in relation to a director under C(DIBD)R.4 includes a. the director’s fees, percentages, salaries and bonuses b. any sums paid to the director by way of expenses allowance less the amounts actually
spent on the expenses for which the allowance was made c. any contributions paid under a retirement benefits scheme, by any person other than the
director, in respect of the director; and d. any other benefits received by the director, whether in cash or otherwise e. but excludes any retirement benefits to which the director is entitled under any retirement
benefits scheme
4. For the purpose of C(DIBD)R.4, 5, 6 and 7, if any emoluments, retirement benefits, payments for loss of office or consideration consist of a benefit otherwise than in cash, to that extent, a reference to the amount of the payments is a reference to the estimated money value of that benefit
5. References to “director” in Appendix 16(24) of the Listing Rules above include a chief executive who is not a director Note: If the chief executive is also a director, then separate references to a chief executive for the purpose of Appendix 16(24) are not required in the disclosures
6. Refer to section 2(1) and Schedule 1 (section 16) of the Companies Ordinance for the definitions of shadow director and subsidiary undertakings, respectively. As Schedule 1 of the Companies Ordinance differs in certain areas from the requirements of HKFRS 10, the term “subsidiary undertaking” may include entities that may not be a “subsidiary” as defined in HKFRS 10. For example, when an entity owns more than 50% of the equity interests in another entity but a shareholders’ agreement restricts the entity’s ability to exercise unilateral control and therefore the majority owned investee may be accounted for as an associate, and any remuneration paid by this associate to the entity’s director may need to be included in the directors’ remuneration disclosed by the investor/entity when the investor/entity has nominated a director to sit on the board of the entity’s investee (which is a subsidiary undertaking under the Companies Ordinance)
7. On 7 November 2017, the HKICPA updated Accounting Bulletin 3 (Revised) Guidance on Disclosure of Directors’ Remuneration which has been developed in consultation with the Companies Registry in so far as the provisions in the Companies Ordinance Cap. 622 and the Companies (Disclosure of Information about Benefits of Directors) Regulation Cap. 622G (the “Regulation”) are concerned. The Accounting Bulletin contains non-mandatory guidance on disclosure of directors’ remuneration in the financial statements in response to the disclosure requirements in the Regulation
A listed issuer shall include particulars of any arrangement under which a director has waived or agreed to waive any emoluments Commentary: Where a director has agreed to waive future emoluments, particulars of such waiver must be given together with those relating to emoluments which accrued during the past financial year. This applies in respect to emoluments from the listed issuer or any of its subsidiaries or other person

An issuer must disclose in its financial statements information in respect of the five highest paid individuals during the financial year. For this purpose, amounts paid or payable by way of commissions on sales generated by the individual are to be ignored. Where all five of these individuals are directors and the information required by this paragraph has been disclosed in the emoluments of directors, this must be stated and no additional disclosure is required. Where the details of one or more of the individuals whose emoluments were the highest have not been included in the emoluments of directors, the following information must be disclosed: 1. the aggregate of basic salaries, housing allowances, other allowances and benefits in kind for
the financial year 2. the aggregate of contributions to pension schemes for the financial year 3. the aggregate of bonuses paid or receivable which are discretionary or are based on the
issuer’s, the group’s or any member of the group’s performance (excluding amounts disclosed in Appendix 16(25)(4) and (5) of the Listing Rules below) for the financial year
4. the aggregate of amounts paid during the financial year or receivable as an inducement to join or upon joining the issuer
5. the aggregate of compensation paid during the financial year or receivable for the loss of any office in connection with the management of the affairs of any member of the group distinguishing between contractual payments and other payments (excluding amounts disclosed in Appendix 16 (25)(1) to (3) of the Listing Rules above)
6. an analysis showing the number of individuals whose remuneration (being amounts paid under Appendix 16 (25)(1) to (5) of the Listing Rules above) fell within bands from HK$nil up to HK$1,000,000 or into higher bands (where the higher limit of the band is an exact multiple of HK$500,000 and the range of the band is HK$499,999)

Commentary: 1. Refer to explanations on page (80) regarding the disclosure of equity-settled share option
expense 2. It is not necessary to disclose the identity of the highest paid individuals, unless any of them are
directors of the issuer Issuers should disclose details of any remuneration payable to members of senior management by band in their annual reports If an entity obtains key management personnel services from another entity (the “management entity”), the entity is not required to apply the requirements in HKAS 24.17 to the compensation paid or payable by the management entity to the management entity’s employees or directors Commentary: In the above code provision, “senior management” refers to the same persons referred to in the issuer’s annual report and required to be disclosed under Appendix 16(12) (i.e., those individuals whose biographical details are disclosed in the annual report) It is the responsibility of the directors of the listed issuer to determine which individual or individuals constitute senior management. Senior management may include directors of subsidiaries; heads of divisions, departments or other operating units within the group as, in the opinion of the listed issuer’s directors, is appropriate. In the case of a PRC issuer, references to directors and senior managers in Appendix 16(12) shall also mean and include supervisors Where senior management is not included in the directors’/highest paid employees’ disclosures, additional disclosure should be made in the annual report

11. DISCONTINUED OPERATION
On 1 September 2017, the Company announced the decision of its board of directors to dispose of DDD
Company Limited. DDD Company Limited engages in construction contract works as a main contractor or
subcontractor. The Group has decided to cease its infrastructure development business because it plans to focus
its resources on its manufacturing businesses. The disposal of DDD Company Limited is due to be completed on
28 August 2018. As at 31 December 2017, final negotiations for the sale were in progress and DDD Company
Limited was classified as a disposal group held for sale and as a discontinued operation. With DDD Company
Limited being classified as a discontinued operation, the infrastructure development business is no longer
included in the note for operating segment information.

Discontinued operations (continued) If an entity ceases to classify a component of an entity as held for sale, the results of operations of the component previously presented in discontinued operations shall be reclassified and included in income from continuing operations for all periods presented. The amounts for prior periods shall be described as having been re-presented
HKFRS5.36
An entity shall disclose the net cash flows attributable to the operating, investing and financing activities of discontinued operations. These disclosures may be presented either in the notes or in the financial statements. These disclosures are not required for disposal groups that are newly acquired subsidiaries that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale on acquisition

Fair value measurement for non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale Commentary:
When an entity measures an asset or disposal group held for sale at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with HKFRS 5, because the asset’s or disposal group’s fair value less costs to sell is lower than its carrying amount, the fair value measurement is identified as non-recurring under HKFRS 13. In which case, disclose the fair value at the end of the reporting period and the reasons for the fair value measurement, and refer to pages (97) and (98) for other disclosure requirements applicable to non-recurring fair value measurements (i.e., HKFRS 13.93(b), (d), (g) and (i))
Dividends
An entity shall present, either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes, the amount of dividends recognised as distributions to owners during the period, and the related amount of dividends per share
HKAS1.107
An entity shall disclose in the notes: 1. the amount of dividends proposed or declared before the financial statements were authorised
for issue but not recognised as a distribution to owners during the period, and the related amount per share
2. the amount of any cumulative preference dividends not recognised
HKAS1.137 -(a) -(b)
If dividends are declared after the reporting period but before the financial statements are authorised for issue, the dividends are not recognised as a liability at the end of the reporting period because no obligation exists at that time. Such dividends are disclosed in the notes
HKAS10.13
Financial statements shall include rates of dividend paid or proposed on each class of shares (with particulars of each such class) and amounts absorbed thereby (or an appropriate negative statement)

2. the weighted average number of ordinary shares used as the denominator in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share, and a reconciliation of these denominators to each other. The reconciliation shall include the individual effect of each class of instruments that affects earnings per share
3. instruments (including contingently issuable shares) that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, but were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are antidilutive for the period(s) presented
4. a description of ordinary share transactions or potential ordinary share transactions, other than changes in the number of ordinary or potential ordinary shares outstanding as a result of capitalisation, bonus issue, share split or reverse share split, that occur after the reporting period and that would have changed significantly the number of ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares outstanding at the end of the period if those transactions had occurred before the end of the reporting period
HKAS33.70 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) &HKAS33.64
If the number of ordinary or potential ordinary shares outstanding increases as a result of a capitalisation, bonus issue or share split, or decreases as a result of a reverse share split, the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented shall be adjusted retrospectively. If these changes occur after the reporting period but before the financial statements are authorised for issue, the per share calculations for those and any prior period financial statements presented shall be based on the new number of shares. The fact that per share calculations reflect such changes in the number of shares shall be disclosed. In addition, basic and diluted earnings per share of all periods presented shall be adjusted for the effects of errors and adjustments resulting from changes in accounting policies accounted for retrospectively
HKAS33.64
An entity that reports a discontinued operation shall disclose the basic and diluted amounts per share for the discontinued operation either in the statement of comprehensive income or in the notes
HKAS33.68
If an entity presents items of profit or loss in a separate statement as described in HKAS 1.10A, it presents basic and diluted earnings per share for the discontinued operation, as required in HKAS 33.68, in that separate statement or in the notes
HKAS33.68A
An entity shall present basic and diluted earnings per share, even if the amounts are negative (i.e., a loss per share) Commentary: Where the impact of the dilution is anti-dilutive (i.e., a bigger earnings per share or smaller loss per share amount) or the Group has no potentially dilutive shares in issue, the amount presented for the diluted earnings per share is the same as the basic earnings per share amount
HKAS33.69
Earnings[/(loss)] per share – additional disclosure requirements
If an entity discloses, in addition to basic and diluted earnings per share, amounts per share using a reported component of the statement the comprehensive income of other than one required by HKAS 33, such amounts shall be calculated using the weighted average number of ordinary shares determined in accordance with HKAS 33. Basic and diluted amounts per share relating to such a component shall be disclosed with equal prominence and presented in the notes. An entity shall indicate the basis on which the numerator(s) is (are) determined, including whether amounts per share are before tax or after tax.

13. EARNINGS[/(LOSS)] PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ORDINARY EQUITY HOLDERS OF THE
PARENT
The calculation of the basic earnings per share amounts is based on the profit for the year attributable to
ordinary equity holders of the parent, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 562,848,017
(2016: 468,930,165) in issue during the year, as adjusted to reflect the rights issue during the year.
The calculation of the diluted earnings per share amounts is based on the profit for the year attributable to
ordinary equity holders of the parent, adjusted to reflect the interest on the convertible bonds, where applicable
(see below). The weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation is the number of ordinary
shares in issue during the year, as used in the basic earnings per share calculation, and the weighted average
number of ordinary shares assumed to have been issued at no consideration on the deemed exercise or
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
Or
No adjustment has been made to the basic earnings[/(loss)] per share amounts presented for the years ended
31 December 2017 and 2016 in respect of a dilution as the impact of the warrants and convertible bonds
outstanding had an anti-dilutive effect on the basic earnings[/(loss)] per share amounts presented.
Or
The Group had no potentially dilutive ordinary shares in issue during the years ended 31 December 2017 and
2016.

* Because the diluted earnings per share amount is increased when taking convertible bonds into account, the
convertible bonds had an anti-dilutive effect on the basic earnings per share for the year and were ignored in
the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Therefore, the diluted earnings per share amounts are based
on the profit for the year and the profit attributable to continuing operations of HK$28,123,000 and
HK$18,945,000, respectively, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 586,873,446 in issue

15. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (continued)
The Group’s investment properties consist of three commercial and one industrial properties in Hong Kong. The
directors of the Company have determined that the investment properties consist of two classes of asset, i.e.,
commercial and industrial, based on the nature, characteristics and risks of each property. The Group's
investment properties were revalued on 31 December 2017 based on valuations performed by A.A. Chan & Co.,
independent professionally qualified valuers, at HK$40,000,000. Each year, the Group’s property manager and
the chief financial officer decide, after approval from the audit committee, to appoint which external valuer to be
responsible for the external valuations of the Group’s properties. Selection criteria include market knowledge,
reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained. The Group’s property manager
and the chief financial officer have discussions with the valuer on the valuation assumptions and valuation
results twice a year when the valuation is performed for interim and annual financial reporting.
The investment properties are leased to third parties under operating leases, further summary details of which
are included in note 47(a) to the financial statements.
(Where the valuation is not performed by an independent qualified valuer, refer to the disclosure requirement in
HKAS 40.75(e) on page (96)) The Group’s investment properties were revalued at HK$40,000,000 on an open
market, existing use basis on 31 December 2017 by Asia Limited, which is a professionally qualified valuer and
is a company owned by a director of the Company.
At 31 December 2017, the Group's investment properties with a carrying value of HK$40,000,000 (2016:
HK$40,000,000) were pledged to secure general banking facilities granted to the Group (note 33).
Further particulars of the Group's investment properties are included on page 159.

Fair value measurement disclosures (continued) An entity shall disclose, at a minimum, the following information for each class of assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position after initial recognition (continued): 5. for recurring fair value measurements categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, a
reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances, disclosing separately changes during the period attributable to the following: a. total gains or losses for the period recognised in profit or loss, and the line item(s) in profit
or loss in which those gains or losses are recognised b. total gains or losses for the period recognised in other comprehensive income, and the line
item(s) in other comprehensive income in which those gains or losses are recognised c. purchases, sales, issues and settlements (each of those types of changes disclosed
separately) d. the amounts of any transfers into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the reasons
for those transfers and the entity’s policy for determining when transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred. Transfers into Level 3 shall be disclosed and discussed separately from transfers out of Level 3
6. for recurring fair value measurements categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the amount of the total gains or losses for the period in HKFRS 13.93(e)(i) included in profit or loss that is attributable to the change in unrealised gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period, and the line item(s) in profit or loss in which those unrealised gains or losses are recognised
7. for recurring fair value measurements categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs if a change in those inputs to a different amount might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. If there are interrelationships between those inputs and other unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, an entity shall also provide a description of those interrelationships and of how they might magnify or mitigate the effect of changes in the unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement. To comply with that disclosure requirement, the narrative description of the sensitivity to changes in unobservable inputs shall include, at a minimum, the unobservable inputs disclosed when complying with HKFRS 12.93(d)
8. for recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, if the highest and best use of a non-financial asset differs from its current use, an entity shall disclose that fact and why the non-financial asset is being used in a manner that differs from its highest and best use
Commentary: 1. The disclosure requirements of HKFRS 13 need not be applied in comparative information
provided for periods before initial application of HKFRS 13. However, comparatives are required in all subsequent years
2. For investment properties that are measured using the cost model, HKAS 40.79(e) requires the fair value of the properties to be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, and accordingly, HKFRS 13.97 requires the following disclosures: a. the level of the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurements (for
disclosure purposes) are categorised (i.e., Level 1, 2 or 3) b. where fair value measurement is categorised within Level 2 or Level 3, a description of
the valuation technique(s) and the inputs used in the fair value measurement However, an entity is not required to provide the quantitative disclosures about significant
unobservable inputs used in fair value measurements categorised within Level 3 required by HKFRS 13.93(d)
c. the highest and best use of the properties (if different from their current use) and the reasons why the properties are being used in a manner that is different from their highest and best use

15. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (continued)
The Group has determined that the highest and best use of the industrial property at the measurement date
would be to convert the property for residential purposes. For strategic reasons, the property is not being used in
this manner.
Under the discounted cash flow method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the benefits and
liabilities of ownership over the asset’s life including an exit or terminal value. This method involves the projection
of a series of cash flows on a property interest. A market-derived discount rate is applied to the projected cash
flow in order to establish the present value of the income stream associated with the asset. The exit yield is
normally separately determined and differs from the discount rate.
The duration of the cash flows and the specific timing of inflows and outflows are determined by events such as
rent reviews, lease renewal and related reletting, redevelopment or refurbishment. The appropriate duration is
driven by market behaviour that is a characteristic of the class of property. The periodic cash flow is estimated as
gross income less vacancy, non-recoverable expenses, collection losses, lease incentives, maintenance costs,
agent and commission costs and other operating and management expenses. The series of periodic net
operating income, along with an estimate of the terminal value anticipated at the end of the projection period, is
then discounted.
A significant increase (decrease) in the estimated rental value and the market rent growth rate per annum in
isolation would result in a significant increase (decrease) in the fair value of the investment properties. A
significant increase (decrease) in the long term vacancy rate and the discount rate in isolation would result in a
significant decrease (increase) in the fair value of the investment properties. Generally, a change in the
assumption made for the estimated rental value is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the rent
growth per annum and the discount rate and an opposite change in the long term vacancy rate.

17. GOODWILL (continued)
Impairment testing of goodwill
Goodwill acquired through business combinations is allocated to the following cash-generating units for
impairment testing:
Industrial products cash-generating unit; and
Infrastructure cash-generating unit.
Industrial products cash-generating unit
The recoverable amount of the industrial products cash-generating unit has been determined based on a value
in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets covering a five-year period approved
by senior management. The discount rate applied to the cash flow projections is 6.5% (2016: 6.8%). The
growth rate used to extrapolate the cash flows of the industrial products unit beyond the five-year period is 8%
(2016: 7.8%). This growth rate exceeds the average growth rate of the industry in which the industrial products
unit operates by one percentage point. Senior management of the industrial products unit believes that this
growth rate is justified, given the new technology internally developed by the Group during the year. The Group
is the pioneer of such technology which has reduced the cost and time of production, and these industrial
products qualify for a major product of the Group.
Infrastructure cash-generating unit
In 2016, the recoverable amount of the infrastructure cash-generating unit was determined based on a value in
use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets covering a five-year period approved by
senior management. The discount rate applied to the cash flow projections was 8.7% and cash flows beyond
the five-year period were extrapolated using a growth rate of 3.2%, which was the same as the long term
average growth rate of the infrastructure industry.
In the opinion of the Company’s directors, a decrease in the growth rate by ... to ...% would cause the carrying
amount of the cash-generating unit to exceed its recoverable amount by approximately HK$... to HK$..., and any
reasonably possible change in the other key assumptions on which the recoverable amount is based would not
cause the cash-generating unit’s carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.
The carrying amount of goodwill allocated to each of the cash-generating units is as follows:
Industrial products Infrastructure Total

Goodwill – impairment testing of goodwill (continued) 6. if a reasonably possible change in a key assumption on which management has based its
determination of the unit’s (group of units’) recoverable amount would cause the unit’s (group of units’) carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount: a. the amount by which the unit’s (group of units’) recoverable amount exceeds its carrying
amount b. the value assigned to the key assumption c. the amount by which the value assigned to the key assumption must change, after
incorporating any consequential effects of that change on the other variables used to measure recoverable amount, in order for the unit’s (group of units’) recoverable amount to be equal to its carrying amount
If some or all of the carrying amount of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives is allocated across multiple cash-generating units (groups of units), and the amount so allocated to each unit (group of units) is not significant in comparison with the entity’s total carrying amount of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, that fact shall be disclosed, together with the aggregate carrying amount of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives allocated to those units (groups of units). In addition, if the recoverable amounts of any of those units (groups of units) are based on the same key assumption(s) and the aggregate carrying amount of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives allocated to them is significant in comparison with the entity’s total carrying amount of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, an entity shall disclose that fact, together with: 1. the aggregate carrying amount of goodwill allocated to those units (groups of units) 2. the aggregate carrying amount of intangible assets with indefinite useful lives allocated to those
units (groups of units) 3. a description of the key assumption(s) 4. a description of management’s approach to determining the value(s) assigned to the key
assumption(s), whether those value(s) reflect past experience or, if appropriate, are consistent with external sources of information, and, if not, how and why they differ from past experience or external sources of information
5. if a reasonably possible change in the key assumption(s) would cause the aggregate of the units’ (groups of units’) carrying amounts to exceed the aggregate of their recoverable amounts: a. the amount by which the aggregate of the units’ (groups of units’) recoverable amounts
exceeds the aggregate of their carrying amounts b. the value(s) assigned to the key assumption(s) c. the amount by which the value(s) assigned to the key assumption(s) must change, after
incorporating any consequential effects of the change on the other variables used to measure recoverable amount, in order for the aggregate of the units’ (groups of units’) recoverable amounts to be equal to the aggregate of their carrying amounts
Commentary: Hong Kong Listed Limited has determined the recoverable amounts of its cash-generating units based on value in use under HKAS 36. For cases where the recoverable amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal, entities need to disclose information about the valuation technique used to measure fair value less costs of disposal as required by HKAS 36.134(e) and the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit as required by HKAS 36.134(c) Refer to page (101) for the disclosure requirements of HKAS 36.134(c) and page (100) for the disclosure requirements of HKAS 36.130

17. GOODWILL (continued)
Impairment testing of goodwill (continued)
Assumptions were used in the value in use calculation of the industrial products and infrastructure cash-
generating units for 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2016. The following describes each key assumption
on which management has based its cash flow projections to undertake impairment testing of goodwill:
Budgeted gross margins – The basis used to determine the value assigned to the budgeted gross margins is
the average gross margins achieved in the year immediately before the budget year, increased for expected
efficiency improvements, and expected market development.
Discount rates – The discount rates used are before tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant units.
Raw materials price inflation – The basis used to determine the value assigned to raw materials price inflation is
the forecast price indices during the budget year for countries A and B from where the raw materials are
sourced.
The values assigned to the key assumptions on market development of industrial products and infrastructure
industries, discount rates and raw materials price inflation are consistent with external information sources.
Where there are impairments recognised or reversed during the year, disclose the recoverable amount of
the asset (or cash-generating unit) and add other disclosures to meet the requirements of HKAS 36.130 –
see page (100)
Where the recoverable amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal, disclose the information required by
HKAS 36.130(f) and HKAS 36.134(e) – see pages (100) and (101)
If a reasonably possible change in a key assumption on which management has based its determination of the
unit's (group of units') recoverable amount would cause the unit's (or group of units') carrying amount to exceed
its recoverable amount, disclose the information as required by HKAS 36.134(f)

presentation currency, and on the translation of a foreign operation into the presentation currency of the entity
8. other changes in the carrying amount during the period
HKAS38.118(e) -(i) -(ii) -(iii) -(iv) -(v) -(vi) -(vii) -(viii)
An entity shall disclose: 1. for an intangible asset assessed as having an indefinite useful life, the carrying amount of that
asset and the reasons supporting the assessment of an indefinite useful life. In giving these reasons, the entity shall describe the factor(s) that played a significant role in determining that the asset has an indefinite useful life
2. a description, the carrying amount and remaining amortisation period of any individual intangible asset that is material to the entity’s financial statements

Commentary: 1. The summarised financial information presented in accordance with HKFRS 12.B12 shall be the
amounts included in the HKFRS financial statements of the associate (and not the entity’s share of those amounts). If the entity accounts for its interest in the associate using the equity method, the amounts included in the HKFRS financial statements of the associate shall be adjusted to reflect adjustments made by the entity when using the equity method, such as fair value adjustments made at the time of acquisition and adjustments for differences in accounting policies
2. An entity may present the summarised financial information required by HKFRS 12.B12 on the basis of the associate’s financial statements if: a. the entity measures its interest in the associate at fair value in accordance with HKAS 28
(as amended in 2011); and b. the associate does not prepare HKFRS financial statements and preparation on that basis
would be impracticable or cause undue cost In that case, the entity shall disclose the basis on which the summarised financial information has been prepared This means that summarised financial information is also required even if the fair value option is used to account for the investments by venture capital organisations or similar entities

During the year, the gross gain in respect of the Group's available-for-sale investments recognised in other
comprehensive income amounted to HK$565,000 (2016: HK$850,000), of which HK$15,000 (2016: Nil) was
reclassified from other comprehensive income to the statement of profit or loss for the year.
The above investments consist of investments in equity securities which were designated as available-for-sale
financial assets and have no fixed maturity date or coupon rate.
There was a significant decline in the market value of certain listed equity investments during the year. The
directors consider that such a decline indicates that the listed equity investments have been impaired and an
impairment loss of HK$... (2016: Nil), which included a reclassification from other comprehensive income of
HK$... (2016: Nil), has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss for the year.
(If there are investments pledged to secure the liabilities of the Group or other parties) As at 31 December 2017,
the Group's listed equity investments with a carrying value of HK$... (2016: HK$...) were pledged as security for
the Group’s bank loans, as further detailed in note … to the financial statements.
(If the value of the investments has fallen or risen significantly after the end of the reporting period) The market
values of the Group's listed equity investments at the date of approval of these financial statements was
approximately HK$....
(If investments in unquoted equity instruments or related derivatives are measured at cost) As at 31 December
2017, certain unlisted equity investments with a carrying amount of HK$... (2016: HK$...) were stated at cost
less impairment because the range of reasonable fair value estimates is so significant that the directors are of
the opinion that their fair value cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not intend to dispose of them in
the near future.

This analysis will be different from the one required under HKFRS 7 which is for those trade receivables due but not impaired (please refer to page (111) for the detailed requirement on ageing analysis under HKFRS 7). Accordingly, two ageing analyses are expected to be disclosed for trade receivables According to the FAQ published by the Stock Exchange on 6 February 2015, for issuers in industries that do not issue invoices to their customers, there may be sales and purchase contracts entered into between the company and its customers which set out the agreed payment schedule. In such cases, the issuer should present the ageing analysis based on the payment schedule set out in the sales and purchase contracts

The Group's trading terms with its customers are mainly on credit, except for new customers, where payment in
advance is normally required. The credit period is generally one month, extending up to three months for major
customers. Each customer has a maximum credit limit. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its
outstanding receivables and has a credit control department to minimise credit risk. Overdue balances are
reviewed regularly by senior management. In view of the aforementioned and the fact that the Group’s trade
receivables relate to a large number of diversified customers, there is no significant concentration of credit risk.
The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances. Trade
receivables are non-interest-bearing.
An ageing analysis of the trade receivables as at the end of the reporting period, based on the invoice date and

Receivables that were neither past due nor impaired relate to a large number of diversified customers for whom
there was no recent history of default.
Receivables that were past due but not impaired relate to a number of independent customers that have a good
track record with the Group. Based on past experience, the directors of the Company are of the opinion that no
provision for impairment is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant change in
credit quality and the balances are still considered fully recoverable.
Provide other information about the credit quality, e.g., by reference to external or internal credit ratings (if
available) or historical information about counterparty default rates
The illustrative disclosures for transfers of financial assets relating to endorsement of bills and trade receivable
factoring arrangements are provided on page 186
Included in the Group's trade receivables are amounts due from the Group's joint ventures and associates of
HK$255,000 (2016: HK$153,000) and HK$53,000 (2016: HK$35,000), respectively, which are repayable on credit
terms similar to those offered to the major customers of the Group.

Prepayments, deposits and other receivables If the entity has designated a loan or receivable (or group of loans or receivables) as at fair value through profit or loss, it shall disclose: 1. the maximum exposure to credit risk of the loan or receivable (or group of loans or receivables)
at the end of the reporting period 2. the amount by which any related credit derivatives or similar instruments mitigate that maximum
exposure to credit risk 3. the amount of change, during the period and cumulatively, in the fair value of the loan or
receivable (or group of loans or receivables) that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the financial asset determined either: a. as the amount of change in its fair value that is not attributable to changes in market
conditions that give rise to market risk b. using an alternative method the entity believes more faithfully represents the amount of
change in its fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the asset Changes in market conditions that give rise to market risk include changes in an observed (benchmark) interest rate, commodity price, foreign exchange rate or index of prices or rates
4. the amount of the change in the fair value of any related credit derivatives or similar instruments that has occurred during the period and cumulatively since the loan or receivable was designated
5. the methods used to comply with the requirements in HKFRS 7.9(c) 6. if the entity believes that the disclosure it has given to comply with the requirements in
HKFRS 7.9(c) does not faithfully represent the change in the fair value of the financial asset or financial liability attributable to changes in its credit risk, the reasons for reaching this conclusion and the factors it believes are relevant

Contracts for services
Commentary: Other than for the revenue from contracts for services, which is covered by HKAS 18, there is no HKFRS which specifically deals with the disclosure of the carrying amount of contracts for services in the statement of financial position. If such contracts include a profit element, then the treatment under HKAS 2 would not be appropriate. Accordingly, we consider that the most appropriate disclosures to be followed are those as required for construction contracts by HKAS 11

Forward currency contracts – cash flow hedges
Forward currency contracts are designated as hedging instruments in respect of forecast future sales and
forecast purchases in Euros to which the Group has firm commitments. The forward currency contract balances
vary with the levels of expected foreign currency sales and purchases and changes in foreign exchange forward
rates.
The terms of the forward currency contracts match the terms of the commitments. The cash flow hedges relating
to expected future sales in January and February 2018 and the expected future purchases in February and March
2018 were assessed to be highly effective and net gains of HK$351,000 were included in the hedging reserve as
follows:
2017
HK$’000
Total fair value gains included in the hedging reserve 878

Deferred tax on transfers to inventories 68 _______
Net gains on cash flow hedges 351 _______ _______
(For non-hedging currency derivatives) In addition, the Group has entered into various forward currency
contracts to manage its exchange rate exposures. These forward currency contracts are not designated for
hedge purposes and are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of non-hedging
currency derivatives amounting to HK$... were charged to the statement of profit or loss during the year (2016:
HK$...).
Fair value hedge
At 31 December 2017, the Group had an interest rate swap agreement in place with a notional amount of
US$3,600,000 whereby it receives interest at a fixed rate of 8.25% and pays interest at a variable rate equal to
the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate (“HIBOR”) on the notional amount. The swap is used to hedge the
exposure to changes in the fair value of its 8.25% secured loan. The secured loan and the interest rate swap
agreement have the same critical terms. This hedge of the interest rate swap was assessed to be effective.

b. using an alternative method the entity believes more faithfully represents the amount of change in its fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liability
2. the difference between the financial liability‘s carrying amount and the amount the entity would be contractually required to pay at maturity to the holder of the obligation
3. the methods used to comply with the requirements in HKFRS 7.10(a) 4. if the entity believes that the disclosure it has given to comply with the requirements in

34. CONVERTIBLE BONDS
On 1 January 2017, the Company issued 30,000,000 7% convertible bonds with a nominal value of
HK$30,000,000. There was no movement in the number of these convertible bonds during the year. The
bonds are convertible at the option of the bondholders into ordinary shares on 1 January 2019 on the basis
of one ordinary share for every three HK$1 bonds held. The bonds are redeemable at the option of the
bondholders at a price of HK$1.20 per bond on 1 January 2019. Any convertible notes not converted will
be redeemed on 31 December 2021 at a price of HK$1.20 per HK$1 bond. The bonds carry interest at a
rate of 7% per annum, which is payable half-yearly in arrears on 30 June and 31 December.
The fair value of the liability component was estimated at the issuance date using an equivalent market
interest rate for a similar bond without a conversion option. The residual amount is assigned as the equity
component and is included in shareholders' equity.
The convertible bonds issued during the year have been split into the liability and equity components as

The Group has tax losses arising in Hong Kong of HK$1,198,000 (2016: HK$868,000) that are available

The Group also has tax losses arising in Mainland China of HK$... (2016: HK$...) that will expire in one to five
years for offsetting against future taxable profits.
Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these losses as they have arisen in subsidiaries that
have been loss-making for some time and it is not considered probable that taxable profits will be available
against which the tax losses can be utilised.

Where there is a combination of deductible temporary differences, unused tax credits or tax losses for which
no deferred tax asset is recognised in the statement of financial position, a table format may be more
appropriate. Note: Disclosure of the tax effect is not required.

Tax losses … …
Deductible temporary differences … …
Unused tax credits … … _____ _____

The above tax losses are available indefinitely for offsetting against future taxable profits of the companies in
which the losses arose. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of the above items as it is not
considered probable that taxable profits will be available against which the above items can be utilised.
Pursuant to the PRC Corporate Income Tax Law, a 10% withholding tax is levied on dividends declared to foreign
investors from the foreign investment enterprises established in Mainland China. The requirement is effective
from 1 January 2008 and applies to earnings after 31 December 2007. A lower withholding tax rate may be
applied if there is a tax treaty between Mainland China and the jurisdiction of the foreign investors. For the Group,
the applicable rate is 5% or 10%. The Group is therefore liable for withholding taxes on dividends distributed by
those subsidiaries established in Mainland China in respect of earnings generated from 1 January 2008.
(Where no deferred tax has been recognised for withholding tax, e.g., in respect of PRC subsidiaries of an
overseas parent under HKAS 12.39) At 31 December 2017, no deferred tax has been recognised for withholding
taxes that would be payable on the unremitted earnings that are subject to withholding taxes of the Group's
subsidiaries and joint ventures established in Mainland China. In the opinion of the directors, it is not probable
that these subsidiaries and joint ventures will distribute such earnings in the foreseeable future. The aggregate
amount of temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures in Mainland
China for which deferred tax liabilities have not been recognised totalled approximately HK$... at 31 December
2017 (2016: HK$...).
Or
At 31 December 2017, there was no significant unrecognised deferred tax liability (2016: Nil) for taxes that would
be payable on the unremitted earnings of the Group's subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures as the Group has
no liability to additional tax should such amounts be remitted due to the availability of double taxation relief.
There are no income tax consequences attaching to the payment of dividends by the Company to its
shareholders.

Share capital For each class of share capital, an entity shall disclose the following, either in the statement of financial position or the statement of changes in equity, or in the notes: 1. the number of shares authorised 2. the number of shares issued and fully paid, and issued but not fully paid 3. par value per share, or that the shares have no par value 4. a reconciliation of the number of shares outstanding at the beginning and at the end of the
period 5. the rights, preferences and restrictions attaching to that class including restrictions on the

terms of the issue were fixed 8. the use of the proceeds Commentary: 1. Despite section 37 of Schedule 11 to the Companies Ordinance, a company may, on or after
the commencement date of S135 of the Companies Ordinance (i.e., 3 March 2014), use the amount that was standing to the credit of its share premium account immediately before that commencement date to: a. pay up, in accordance with an agreement made before that commencement date, shares
that are to be issued on or after that commencement date to members of the company as fully paid bonus shares
b. write off the preliminary expenses of the company incurred before that commencement date; or write off the expenses incurred, commission paid, or discount allowed, before that commencement date, in respect of any issue of shares in the company; or
c. provide for the premium payable on redemption of redeemable preference shares issued before 1 September 1991
2. Despite section 37 of Schedule 11 to the Companies Ordinance, if redeemable shares issued
by a company on or after 1 September 1991 but before the commencement date of S135 of the Companies Ordinance are redeemed on or after the commencement date of S135, any premium payable on their redemption may be paid out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of the redemption, up to an amount equal to the lesser of: a. the aggregate of the premiums received by the company on the issue of the shares
redeemed b. the amount that was standing to the credit of the company’s share premium account
immediately before the commencement date of S135 of the Companies Ordinance less any amounts already applied under Sch11.38(1)
If an amount is paid under Sch11.38(2), the remaining amount available for the purposes of Sch11.38(1) or Sch11.38(2) must be reduced by a corresponding amount
3. For these illustrative financial statements, the balance included in the share option reserve in
respect of the share options exercised on or after 3 March 2014 has been transferred to share capital upon exercise of the options. This is not mandatory under the Companies Ordinance and alternative treatments may be adopted

38. SHARE CAPITAL (continued)
Share options
Details of the Company's share option scheme and the share options issued under the scheme are included in
note 39 to the financial statements.
Warrants
During the year, a bonus issue of warrants was made in the proportion of one warrant for every six shares held by
members on the register of members on 18 October 2017, resulting in 108,492,325 warrants being issued. Each
warrant entitles the holder thereof to subscribe for one ordinary share at a subscription price of HK$0.50 per
share, payable in cash and subject to adjustment, from the date of issue to 31 December 2017.
During the year, 333 warrants were exercised for 333 shares at a price of HK$0.50 per share. At the end of the
reporting period, the Company had 108,491,992 warrants outstanding. The exercise in full of such warrants
would, under the present capital structure of the Company, result in the issue of 108,491,992 additional shares.
39. SHARE OPTION SCHEME
The Company operates a share option scheme (the “Scheme”) for the purpose of providing incentives and
rewards to eligible participants who contribute to the success of the Group's operations. Eligible participants of
the Scheme include the Company's directors, including independent non-executive directors, other employees of
the Group, suppliers of goods or services to the Group, customers of the Group, the Company's shareholders,
and any non-controlling shareholder in the Company's subsidiaries. The Scheme became effective on 3 August
2010 and, unless otherwise cancelled or amended, will remain in force for 10 years from that date.
The maximum number of unexercised share options currently permitted to be granted under the Scheme is an
amount equivalent, upon their exercise, to 10% of the shares of the Company in issue at any time. The maximum
number of shares issuable under share options to each eligible participant in the Scheme within any 12-month
period is limited to 1% of the shares of the Company in issue at any time. Any further grant of share options in
excess of this limit is subject to shareholders' approval in a general meeting.
Share options granted to a director, chief executive or substantial shareholder of the Company, or to any of their
associates, are subject to approval in advance by the independent non-executive directors. In addition, any share
options granted to a substantial shareholder or an independent non-executive director of the Company, or to any
of their associates, in excess of 0.1% of the shares of the Company in issue at any time or with an aggregate
value (based on the price of the Company's shares at the date of grant) in excess of HK$5 million, within any 12-
month period, are subject to shareholders' approval in advance in a general meeting.
The offer of a grant of share options may be accepted within 28 days from the date of offer, upon payment of a
nominal consideration of HK$1 in total by the grantee. The exercise period of the share options granted is
determinable by the directors, and commences after a vesting period of one to three years and ends on a date
which is not later than five years from the date of offer of the share options or the expiry date of the Scheme, if
earlier.
The exercise price of share options is determinable by the directors, but may not be less than the higher of (i) the
Stock Exchange closing price of the Company's shares on the date of offer of the share options; and (ii) the
average Stock Exchange closing price of the Company's shares for the five trading days immediately preceding
the date of offer.
Share options do not confer rights on the holders to dividends or to vote at shareholders' meetings.
126
Share option scheme (continued) An entity shall disclose at least the following that enables users of the financial statements to understand the nature and extent of share-based payment arrangements that existed during the period: 1. the number and weighted average exercise prices of share options for each of the following
groups of options: a. outstanding at the beginning of the period b. granted during the period c. forfeited during the period d. exercised during the period e. expired during the period f. outstanding at the end of the period g. exercisable at the end of the period
2. for share options exercised during the period, the weighted average share price at the date of exercise. If options were exercised on a regular basis throughout the period, the entity may instead disclose the weighted average share price during the period
3. for share options outstanding at the end of the period, the range of exercise prices and weighted average remaining contractual life. If the range of exercise prices is wide, the outstanding options shall be divided into ranges that are meaningful for assessing the number and timing of additional shares that may be issued and the cash that may be received upon exercise of those options

Examples of ordinary share transactions described above include: 1. the conversion or exercise of potential ordinary shares outstanding at the end of the reporting
period into ordinary shares 2. an issue of options, warrants, or convertible instruments Commentary:

39. SHARE OPTION SCHEME (continued)
The fair value of equity-settled share options granted during the year, except for the excess number of
1,000,000 share options granted to Mr. T, was estimated as at the date of grant using a binomial model, taking
into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The following table lists the inputs
to the model used:
2017 2016
Dividend yield (%) 3.13 3.13
Expected volatility (%) 15.00 15.00
Historical volatility (%) 15.00 15.00
Risk-free interest rate (%) 4.10 3.90
Expected life of options (year) 0.50 0.50
Weighted average share price (HK$ per share) 0.32 0.295
The expected life of the options is based on the historical data over the past three years and is not necessarily
indicative of the exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the
historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome.
No other feature of the options granted was incorporated into the measurement of fair value.
The 28,400,000 share options exercised during the year resulted in the issue of 28,400,000 ordinary shares of
the Company and new share capital of HK$9,760,000 (before issue expenses), as further detailed in note 38 to
the financial statements.
At the end of the reporting period, the Company had 70,500,000 share options outstanding under the Scheme.
The exercise in full of the outstanding share options would, under the present capital structure of the Company,
result in the issue of 70,500,000 additional ordinary shares of the Company and additional share capital of
HK$22,160,000 (before issue expenses).
Subsequent to the end of the reporting period, on 28 February 2018, a total of 10,000,000 share options were
granted to certain of the directors of the Company in respect of their services to the Group in the forthcoming
year. These share options vest on 30 September 2019 and have an exercise price of HK$0.37 per share and
an exercise period ranging from 30 September 2019 to 30 March 2021. The price of the Company's shares at
the date of grant was HK$0.36 per share.
At the date of approval of these financial statements, the Company had 80,500,000 share options outstanding
under the Scheme, which represented approximately 12.4% of the Company's shares in issue as at that date.
40. RESERVES
The amounts of the Group's reserves and the movements therein for the current and prior years are presented
in the consolidated statement of changes in equity on pages 30 to 31 of the financial statements.
The Group's contributed surplus represents the excess of the [previous] nominal value of the shares of the
subsidiaries acquired pursuant to the Group reorganisation set out in note … over the [previous] nominal
value of the Company's shares issued in exchange therefor.
Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations for Sino-foreign joint venture enterprises, a portion of the profits of
the Group's joint ventures which are established in the People's Republic of China has been transferred to
reserve funds which are restricted as to use. (Provide further details where the balance is material)

Reserves (continued) An entity shall disclose significant restrictions (e.g., statutory, contractual and regulatory restrictions) on its ability to access or use the assets and settle the liabilities of the group, such as: 1. those that restrict the ability of a parent or its subsidiaries to transfer cash or other assets to (or
from) other entities within the group 2. guarantees or other requirements that may restrict dividends and other capital distributions
being paid, or loans and advances being made or repaid, to (or from) other entities within the group
An entity shall disclose the nature and extent of any significant restrictions (e.g., resulting from borrowing arrangements, regulatory requirements or contractual arrangements between investors with joint control of a joint venture or an associate) on the ability of joint ventures or associates to transfer funds to the entity in the form of cash dividends, or to repay loans or advances made by the entity For cash flow hedges, an entity shall disclose: 1. the amount that was recognised in other comprehensive income during the period 2. the amount that was reclassified from equity to profit or loss for the period, showing the amount
included in each line item in the statement of comprehensive income 3. the amount that was removed from equity during the period and included in the initial cost or
other carrying amount of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability whose acquisition or incurrence was a hedged highly probable forecast transaction
HKFRS12.13(a) -(i) -(ii) HKFRS12.22(a) HKFRS7.23 -(c) -(d) -(e)
The aggregate current and deferred tax relating to items that are charged or credited directly to equity shall be disclosed separately

Commentary:
Schedule 4 to the Companies Ordinance requires that if a group produces consolidated financial statements, the holding company’s statement of financial position and a note disclosing the movement in the holding company’s reserves must be included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The holding company’s statement of financial position to be contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a financial year is not required to contain any other notes
(129)
Partly-owned subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests An entity shall disclose for each of its subsidiaries that have non-controlling interests that are material to the reporting entity: 1. the name of the subsidiary 2. the principal place of business (and country of incorporation if different from the principal place
of business) of that subsidiary 3. the proportion of ownership interests held by non-controlling interests 4. the proportion of voting rights held by non-controlling interests, if different from the proportion
of ownership interests held 5. the profit or loss allocated to non-controlling interests of the subsidiary during the reporting
period 6. accumulated non-controlling interests of the subsidiary at the end of the reporting period 7. dividends paid to non-controlling interests 8. summarised financial information about the assets, liabilities, profit or loss and cash flows of
the subsidiary that enables users to understand the interest that non-controlling interests have in the group’s activities and cash flows. That information might include but is not limited to, for example, current assets, non-current assets, non-current liabilities, revenue, profit or loss and total comprehensive income
Commentary: 1. HKFRS 12 requires the above information only in respect of subsidiaries that have non-
controlling interests which are material to the reporting entity. The information should be provided separately for each such subsidiary
2. The summarised financial information required by HKFRS 12.B10(b) shall be the amounts before inter-company eliminations
3. When an entity’s interest in a subsidiary is classified (or included in a disposal group that is classified) as held for sale in accordance with HKFRS 5, the entity is not required to disclose summarised financial information for that subsidiary in accordance with HKFRS 12.B10
4. Although HKFRS 12 does not specifically state that the summarised financial information should be based on the HKFRS financial statements of those subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests, it is expected that an entity should have the information required available in preparing the group’s consolidated financial statements (HKFRS 12.BC29). Therefore, it is expected that the financial information will be based on HKFRSs, using the same accounting policies of the parent

If the specific disclosures required by HKFRS 3 and other HKFRSs do not meet the objectives to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effect of a business combination that occurs during the current reporting period or after the end of the reporting period but before the financial statements are authorised for issue, the acquirer shall disclose whatever additional information is necessary to meet those objectives Commentary: For assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the statement of financial position, HKFRS 13 requires an entity to disclose information that helps users of its financial statements to assess the relevant assets and liabilities, the valuation techniques and inputs used to develop those measurements after initial recognition. As such, the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 13 for assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis do not apply to the initial recognition of fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination (except for contingent consideration payable which is required to be measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period)

The fair values of the trade receivables and other receivables as at the date of acquisition amounted to
HK$655,000 and HK$70,000, respectively. The gross contractual amounts of trade receivables and other
receivables were HK$655,000 and HK$75,000, respectively, of which other receivables of HK$5,000 are
expected to be uncollectible.
The Group incurred transaction costs of HK$150,000 for this acquisition. These transaction costs have been
expensed and are included in other expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.
Included in the goodwill of HK$245,000 recognised above is a customer list, which is not recognised separately.
Because the list is subject to a confidentiality agreement, it is not separable and therefore it does not meet the
criteria for recognition as an intangible asset under HKAS 38 Intangible Assets. None of the goodwill recognised
is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
As part of the purchase agreement, contingent consideration is payable, which is dependent on the amount of
profit before tax of … Limited during the 12-month period subsequent to the acquisition. The initial amount
recognised was HK$... which was determined using the discounted cash flow model and is within Level 3 fair
value measurement. The consideration is due for final measurement and payment to the former shareholders on
30 November 2017. At the date of approval of these financial statements, no further significant changes to the
consideration are expected.
Significant unobservable valuation inputs for the fair value measurement of contingent consideration are as
follows:
Projected profit before tax of … Limited HK$... to HK$...
Discount rate …%
Discount for own non-performance risk …%

2. One way to fulfil the disclosure requirement in HKAS 7.44A is by providing a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the statement of financial position or liabilities arising from financing activities, including the changes identified in HKAS 7.44B. Where an entity discloses such a reconciliation, it shall provide sufficient information to enable users of the financial statements to link items included in the reconciliation to the statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows

Notes to the consolidated statement of cash flows Investing and financing transactions that do not require the use of cash or cash equivalents shall be excluded from a statement of cash flows. Such transactions shall be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements in a way that provides all the relevant information about these investing and financing activities
HKAS7.43
Taxes paid are usually classified as cash flows from operating activities. However, when it is practicable to identify the tax cash flow with an individual transaction that gives rise to cash flows that are classified as investing or financing activities the tax cash flow is classified as an investing or financing activity as appropriate. When tax cash flows are allocated over more than one class of activity, the total amount of taxes paid is disclosed
HKAS7.36
Additional information may be relevant to users in understanding the financial position and liquidity of an entity. Disclosure of this information, together with a commentary by management, is encouraged and may include: 1. the amount of undrawn borrowing facilities that may be available for future operating activities
and to settle capital commitments, indicating any restrictions on the use of these facilities 2. the aggregate amount of cash flows that represent increases in operating capacity separately
from those cash flows that are required to maintain operating capacity 3. the amount of the cash flows arising from the operating, investing and financing activities of
each reportable segment

HKAS37.86 -(a) -(b) -(c)
Where a provision and a contingent liability arise from the same set of circumstances, an entity makes the disclosures in a way that shows the link between the provision and the contingent liability
HKAS37.88
Where an inflow of economic benefits is probable, an entity shall disclose a brief description of the nature of the contingent assets at the end of the reporting period, and, where practicable, an estimate of their financial effect
HKAS37.89
Where any of the information required by HKAS 37.86 and HKAS 37.89 above is not disclosed because it is not practicable to do so, that fact shall be stated
HKAS37.91
In extremely rare cases, disclosure of some or all of the information required by HKAS 37.84 to HKAS 37.89 can be expected to prejudice seriously the position of the entity in a dispute with other parties on the subject matter of the provision, contingent liability or contingent asset. In such cases, an entity need not disclose the information, but shall disclose the general nature of the dispute, together with the fact that, and reason why, the information has not been disclosed
HKAS37.92
Contingent liabilities – disclosure requirements for specific items
For construction contracts, an entity shall disclose contingent liabilities and contingent assets that may arise from such items as warranty costs, claims, penalties or possible losses
HKAS11.45
An entity discloses any tax-related contingent liabilities and contingent assets, for example, from unresolved disputes with the taxation authorities
HKAS12.88
Unfulfilled conditions and other contingencies attaching to government assistance that has been recognised shall be disclosed
HKAS20.39(c)
An entity shall disclose in accordance with HKAS 37, unless the probability of loss is remote, contingent liabilities incurred relating to its interests in joint ventures or associates (including its share of contingent liabilities incurred jointly with other investors with joint control of, or significant influence over, the joint ventures or associates), separately from the amount of other contingent liabilities
HKFRS12.23(b)
For each business combination, if a contingent liability is not recognised because its fair value cannot be measured reliably, the acquirer shall disclose: 1. the information required by HKAS 37.86 above 2. the reasons why the liability cannot be measured reliably

The HKFRS 7 Amendments require extensive qualitative and quantitative disclosures about (i) transferred financial
assets that are not derecognised in their entirety and (ii) continuing involvement in transferred financial assets that
are derecognised in their entirety, irrespective of when the related transfer transaction occurred. The disclosures
are required to be presented in a single note to the financial statements. Please refer to Appendix 8 for the
illustrative disclosures and the relevant disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets under the HKFRS
7 Amendments.
141
Fair value of financial instruments For each class of financial assets and financial liabilities, an entity shall disclose the fair value of that class of assets and liabilities in a way that permits it to be compared with its carrying amount
HKFRS7.25
In disclosing fair values, an entity shall group financial assets and financial liabilities into classes, but shall offset them only to the extent that their carrying amounts are offset in the statement of financial position
HKFRS7.26
Disclosures of fair value are not required: 1. when the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value, for example, short-term
trade receivables and payables 2. for an investment in equity instruments that do not have a quoted price in an active market for
an identical instrument (i.e., a Level 1 input), or derivatives linked to such equity instruments, that is measured at cost because its fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably, or
3. for a contract containing a discretionary participation feature (as described in HKFRS 4) if the fair value of that feature cannot be measured reliably
HKFRS7.29 -(a) -(b) -(c)
In the cases described in HKFRSs 7.29(b) and (c), an entity shall disclose information to help users of the financial statements make their own judgements about the extent of possible differences between the carrying amount of those financial assets or financial liabilities and their fair value, including: 1. the fact that fair value information has not been disclosed for these instruments because their
fair value cannot be measured reliably 2. a description of the financial instruments, their carrying amount, and an explanation of why fair
value cannot be measured reliably 3. information about the market for the instruments 4. information about whether and how the entity intends to dispose of the financial instruments 5. if financial instruments whose fair value previously could not be reliably measured are
derecognised, that fact, their carrying amount at the time of derecognition, and the amount of gain or loss recognised
HKFRS7.30 -(a) -(b) -(c) -(d) -(e)
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price (i.e., the fair value of the consideration given or received, see also HKFRS 13). If an entity determines that the fair value at initial recognition differs from the transaction price as mentioned in HKAS 39.43A, the entity shall account for that instrument at that date as follows: 1. at the measurement required by HKAS 39.43 if that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in
an active market for an identical asset or liability (i.e., Level 1 input) or based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets. An entity shall recognise the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price as a gain or loss
2. in all other cases, at the measurement required by HKAS 39.43, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price. After initial recognition, the entity shall recognise that deferred difference as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a change in a factor (including time) that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability
In such cases, the entity shall disclose by class of financial asset or financial liability: 1. the aggregate difference yet to be recognised in profit or loss at the beginning and end of the
period and a reconciliation of changes in the balance of this difference 2. why the entity concluded that the transaction price was not the best evidence of fair value,
including description of the evidence that supports the fair value
For financial assets and financial liabilities, if changing one or more of the unobservable inputs to reflect reasonably possible alternative assumptions would change fair value significantly, an entity shall state that fact and disclose the effect of those changes. The entity shall disclose how the effect of a change to reflect a reasonably possible alternative assumption was calculated. For that purpose, significance shall be judged with respect to profit or loss, and total assets or total liabilities, or when changes in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income, total equity
For a liability measured at fair value and issued with an inseparable third-party credit enhancement, an issuer shall disclose the existence of that credit enhancement and whether it is reflected in the fair value measurement of the liability

Management has assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, the current portion of pledged
deposits, trade receivables, trade and bills payables, financial assets included in prepayments, deposits and other
receivables, financial liabilities included in other payables and accruals, amounts due from/to subsidiaries, an
amount due to the ultimate holding company and loans from associates approximate to their carrying amounts
largely due to the short term maturities of these instruments.
The Group’s finance department headed by the finance manager is responsible for determining the policies and
procedures for the fair value measurement of financial instruments. The finance manager reports directly to the
chief financial officer and the audit committee. At each reporting date, the finance department analyses the
movements in the values of financial instruments and determines the major inputs applied in the valuation. The
valuation is reviewed and approved by the chief financial officer. The valuation process and results are discussed
with the audit committee twice a year for interim and annual financial reporting.
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could
be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
The fair values of the non-current portion of pledged deposits, finance lease payables, interest-bearing bank and
other borrowings have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows using rates currently
available for instruments with similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The Group’s own non-
performance risk for finance lease payables, and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings as at 31 December
2017 was assessed to be insignificant. The fair value of the liability portion of the convertible bonds is estimated
by discounting the expected future cash flows using an equivalent market interest rate for a similar convertible
bond with consideration of the Group’s own non-performance risk.
142
Fair value hierarchy of financial instruments Commentary: Other than the disclosure requirements of HKFRS 7 for the fair value of financial instruments, an entity is required to disclose the information in respect of its financial instruments in accordance with HKFRS 13. Disclosure requirements of HKFRS 13.93 are included on pages (97) and (98)

51. FAIR VALUE AND FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
The fair values of listed equity investments are based on quoted market prices. The fair values of unlisted
available-for-sale equity investments have been estimated using a discounted cash flow valuation model based
on assumptions that are not supported by observable market prices or rates. The valuation requires the directors
to make estimates about the expected future cash flows including expected future dividends and proceeds on
subsequent disposal of the shares. The directors believe that the estimated fair values resulting from the
valuation technique, which are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position, and the related
changes in fair values, which are recorded in other comprehensive income, are reasonable, and that they were
the most appropriate values at the end of the reporting period.
For the fair value of the unlisted available-for-sale equity investments, management has estimated the potential
effect of using reasonably possible alternatives as inputs to the valuation model and has quantified this as a
reduction in fair value of approximately HK$604,000, using less favourable assumptions, and an increase in fair
value of approximately HK$879,000, using more favourable assumptions.
The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions
with AAA credit ratings. Derivative financial instruments, including forward currency contracts and interest rate
swaps, are measured using valuation techniques similar to forward pricing and swap models, using present value
calculations. The models incorporate various market observable inputs including the credit quality of
counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates and interest rate curves. The carrying amounts of
forward currency contracts and interest rate swaps are the same as their fair values.
As at 31 December 2017, the marked to market value of the derivative asset position is net of a credit valuation
adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk. The changes in counterparty credit risk had no
material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationship and other
financial instruments recognised at fair value.

Financial risk management objectives and policies – general disclosure requirements An entity shall disclose information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the significance of financial instruments for its financial position and performance The disclosures required by HKFRS 7.31 to HKFRS 7.42 (the disclosure requirements of which are included on pages (148) to (152)) regarding the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments shall be either given in the financial statements or incorporated by cross-reference from the financial statements to some other statement, such as a management commentary or risk report, that is available to users of the financial statements on the same terms as the financial statements and at the same time An entity shall disclose information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments to which the entity is exposed at the end of the reporting period. These risks typically include, but are not limited to, credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk Providing qualitative disclosures in the context of quantitative disclosures enables users to link related disclosures and hence form an overall picture of the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments. The interaction between qualitative and quantitative disclosures contributes to disclosure of information in a way that better enables users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks
HKFRS7.7 HKFRS7.B6 HKFRS7.31&32 HKFRS7.32A
Commentary:
The following definitions are adopted under HKFRS 7: 1. market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk a. currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates b. interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates c. Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the
individual financial instrument or its issuer or by factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market
2. liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated
with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset 3. credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the
other party by failing to discharge an obligation
HKFRS7.AppA
For each type of risk arising from financial instruments, an entity shall disclose: 1. the exposures to risk and how they arise 2. its objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk and the methods used to measure
the risk 3. any changes in (1) or (2) above from the previous period 4. summary quantitative data about its exposure to that risk at the end of the reporting period. This

52. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group's principal financial instruments, other than derivatives, comprise bank loans and overdrafts,
convertible bonds, finance leases, other interest-bearing loans, and cash and short term deposits. The main
purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group's operations. The Group has various
other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its
operations.
The Group also enters into derivative transactions, including principally interest rate swaps and forward currency
contracts. The purpose is to manage the interest rate and currency risks arising from the Group's operations and
its sources of finance.
It is, and has been throughout the year under review, the Group's policy that no trading in financial instruments
shall be undertaken.
The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit
risk and liquidity risk. The board of directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and
they are summarised below. The Group's accounting policies in relation to derivatives are set out in note 2.4 to
the financial statements.
Interest rate risk
The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's long term
debt obligations with a floating interest rate.
The Group's policy is to manage its interest cost using a mix of fixed and variable rate debts. The Group's policy
is to maintain between 25% and 65% of its interest-bearing borrowings at fixed interest rates. To manage this
mix in a cost-effective manner, the Group enters into interest rate swaps, in which the Group agrees to exchange,
at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to
an agreed-upon notional principal amount. At 31 December 2017, after taking into account the effect of the
interest rate swaps, approximately 45% (2016: 25%) of the Group's interest-bearing borrowings bore interest at
fixed rates.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other
variables held constant, of the Group's profit before (Or after) tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings)
and the Group's equity.

Financial risk management objectives and policies – market risk Unless an entity complies with HKFRS 7.41, it shall disclose: 1. a sensitivity analysis for each type of market risk (i.e., currency risk, interest rate risk and other
price risk) to which the entity is exposed at the end of the reporting period, showing how profit or loss and equity would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variable that were reasonably possible at that date
2. the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis 3. changes from the previous period in the methods and assumptions used, and the reasons for
such changes
HKFRS7.40 -(a) -(b) -(c)
If an entity prepares a sensitivity analysis, such as value-at-risk, that reflects interdependencies between risk variables (e.g., interest rates and exchange rates) and uses it to manage financial risks, it may use that sensitivity analysis in place of the analysis specified in HKFRS 7.40. The entity shall also disclose: 1. an explanation of the method used in preparing such a sensitivity analysis, and of the main
parameters and assumptions underlying the data provided 2. an explanation of the objective of the method used and of limitations that may result in the
information not fully reflecting the fair value of the assets and liabilities involved
HKFRS7.41 -(a) -(b)
When the sensitivity analyses disclosed in accordance with HKFRS 7.40 or HKFRS 7.41 are unrepresentative of a risk inherent in a financial instrument (for example because the year-end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year), the entity shall disclose that fact and the reason it believes the sensitivity analyses are unrepresentative
HKFRS7.42
Commentary: 1. In preparing the sensitivity analysis, an entity is not required to determine what the profit or loss
for the period would have been if relevant risk variables had been different. Instead, an entity discloses the effect on profit or loss and equity at the end of the reporting period assuming that a reasonably possible change in the relevant risk variable had occurred at the end of the reporting period and had been applied to the risk exposures in existence at that date. In determining what a reasonably possible change in the relevant risk variable is, an entity should consider the economic environments in which it operates. A reasonably possible change should not include remote or “worst case” scenarios or “stress tests”
2. An entity is not required to disclose the effect on profit or loss and equity for each change within a range of reasonably possible changes of the relevant risk variable. Disclosure of the effects of the changes at the limits of the reasonably possible range would be sufficient
HKFRS7.B18&19 HKFRS7.B18
An entity shall provide sensitivity analyses for the whole of its business, but may provide different types of sensitivity analysis for different classes of financial instruments
HKFRS7.B21
Financial risk management objectives and policies – market risk – interest rate risk
For interest rate risk, the sensitivity analysis might show separately the effect of a change in market interest rates on: 1. interest income and expense 2. other line items of profit or loss (such as trading gains and losses) 3. when applicable, equity An entity might disclose a sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk for each currency in which the entity has material exposures to interest rate risk
HKFRS7.IG34
Commentary: Interest rate risk also arises on some financial instruments not recognised in the statement of financial position (e.g., some loan commitments)
HKFRS7.B22
Financial risk management objectives and policies – market risk – currency risk
Commentary:
1. For the purpose of HKFRS 7, currency risk does not arise from financial instruments that are non-monetary items or from financial instruments denominated in the functional currency
2. A sensitivity analysis is disclosed for each currency to which an entity has significant exposure 3. Concentrations of foreign exchange risk may arise if an entity has a significant net open position
in a single foreign currency, or aggregate net open positions in several currencies that tend to move together

Refer to HKFRS 7.IG36 for an illustrative example of a narrative approach that meets the disclosure
requirements in HKFRS 7.40(a). Alternatively, the Group may elect to present the sensitivity analysis, such as
value-at-risk, that reflects interdependencies between risk variables if the Group uses it to manage financial risk.
Refer to the relevant disclosure requirements on page (149).
Foreign currency risk
The Group has transactional currency exposures. Such exposures arise from sales or purchases by operating
units in currencies other than the units' functional currencies. Approximately …% (2016: …%) of the Group's
sales were denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the operating units making the sale,
whilst approximately …% (2016: …%) of costs were denominated in the units' functional currencies. The Group
requires all its operating units to use forward currency contracts to eliminate the foreign currency exposures on
any individual transactions in excess of HK$800,000, for which payment is anticipated more than one month after
the Group has entered into a firm commitment for a sale or purchase. The forward currency contracts must be in
the same currency as the hedged item. It is the Group's policy not to enter into forward contracts until a firm
commitment is in place.
It is the Group's policy to negotiate the terms of the hedge derivatives to match the terms of the hedged item to
maximise hedge effectiveness.
At 31 December 2017, the Group had hedged …% (2016: …%) of its foreign currency sales for which firm
commitments existed at the end of the reporting period.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity at the end of the reporting period to a reasonably possible
change in the Euro exchange rate, with all other variables held constant, of the Group's profit before (Or after) tax

Financial risk management objectives and policies – credit risk An entity shall disclose by class of financial instrument: 1. the amount that best represents its maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting
period without taking account of any collateral held or other credit enhancements. This disclosure is not required for financial instruments whose carrying amount best represents the maximum exposure to credit risk
2. a description of collateral held as security and of other credit enhancements, and their financial effect (e.g., a quantification of the extent to which collateral and other credit enhancements mitigate credit risk) in respect of the amount that best represents the maximum exposure to credit risk (whether disclosed in accordance with HKFRS7.36(a) or represented by the carrying amount of a financial instrument)
HKFRS7.36 -(a) -(b)
Disclosure of concentrations of risk shall include: 1. a description of how management determines concentrations 2. a description of the shared characteristic that identifies each concentration (e.g., counterparty,
geographical area, currency or market) 3. the amount of the risk exposure associated with all financial instruments sharing that
characteristic
HKFRS7.B8 -(a) -(b) -(c)
Commentary: HKFRS 7.36(a) requires disclosure of the amount that best represents the entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk. For a financial asset, this is typically the gross carrying amount, net of: 1. any amounts offset in accordance with HKAS 32 2. any impairment losses recognised in accordance with HKAS 39

52. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Credit risk
The Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers
who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances
are monitored on an ongoing basis and the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant. For transactions
that are not denominated in the functional currency of the relevant operating unit, the Group does not offer
credit terms without the specific approval of the Head of Credit Control.
The credit risk of the Group's other financial assets, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, amounts due
from associates and joint ventures, other receivables and certain derivative instruments, arises from default of
the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amounts of these instruments.
Alternatively, the Group may present a table showing the amounts of maximum exposure to credit risk at the end
of the reporting period, including financial assets subject to credit risk whose carrying amounts do not represent
the maximum exposure to credit risk as well as financial guarantees, and other contingencies and commitments
Since the Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties, there is no requirement for
collateral. Concentrations of credit risk are managed by customer/counterparty, by geographical region and by
industry sector. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group as the customer bases of
the Group’s trade receivables are widely dispersed in different sectors and industries.
Or
At the end of the reporting period, the Group had certain concentrations of credit risk as …% (2016: …%)
and …% (2016: …%) of the Group’s trade receivables were due from the Group’s largest customer and the five
largest customers, respectively, within the … segment.
Disclose how management determines the concentrations
Further quantitative data in respect of the Group’s exposure to credit risk arising from trade receivables are
disclosed in note 24 to the financial statements.
Liquidity risk
The Group monitors its risk to a shortage of funds using a recurring liquidity planning tool. This tool considers
the maturity of both its financial instruments and financial assets (e.g., trade receivables) and projected cash
flows from operations.
The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of
bank overdrafts, bank loans, convertible bonds, finance leases and other interest-bearing loans. The Group's
policy is that not more than 75% of borrowings should mature in any 12-month period. 63% of the Group's
debts would mature in less than one year as at 31 December 2017 (2016: 73%) based on the carrying value of
borrowings reflected in the financial statements.
150
Financial risk management objectives and policies – liquidity risk An entity shall disclose: 1. a maturity analysis for non-derivative financial liabilities (including issued financial guarantee
contracts) that shows the remaining contractual maturities 2. a maturity analysis for derivative financial liabilities. The maturity analysis shall include the
remaining contractual maturities for those derivative financial liabilities for which contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows (e.g., an interest rate swap with a remaining maturity of five years in a cash flow hedge of a variable rate financial asset or liability or all loan commitments)
3. a description of how it manages the liquidity risk inherent in HKFRS 7.39(a) and HKFRS 7.39(b)
HKFRS7.39 -(a) -(b)& HKFRS7.B11B -(c)
If the outflows of cash (or another financial asset) included in the summary quantitative data about an entity’s exposure to liquidity risk could either: 1. occur significantly earlier than indicated in the data, or 2. be for significantly different amounts from those indicated in the data (e.g., for a derivative that
is included in the data on a net settlement basis but for which the counterparty has the option to require gross settlement)
the entity shall state that fact and provide quantitative information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the extent of this risk unless that information is included in the contractual maturity analyses
HKFRS7.B10A
An entity shall disclose a maturity analysis of financial assets it holds for managing liquidity risk (e.g., financial assets that are readily saleable or expected to generate cash inflows to meet cash outflows on financial liabilities), if that information is necessary to enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the nature and extent of liquidity risk
HKFRS7.B11E
Commentary: In preparing the maturity analyses: 1. an entity uses its judgement to determine an appropriate number of time bands 2. an entity shall not separate an embedded derivative from a hybrid (combined) financial
instrument. For such an instrument, an entity shall apply HKFRS 7.39(a) 3. contractual amounts disclosed in the maturity analyses are the contractual undiscounted cash
flows and such undiscounted cash flows differ from the amount included in the statement of financial position because the amount in that statement is based on discounted cash flows, for example: a. gross finance lease obligations (before deducting finance charges) b. prices specified in forward agreements to purchase financial assets for cash c. net amounts for pay-floating/receive-fixed interest rate swaps for which net cash flows are
exchanged d. contractual amounts to be exchanged in a derivative financial instrument (e.g., a currency
swap) for which gross cash flows are exchanged e. gross loan commitments
4. when the amount payable is not fixed, the amount disclosed is determined by reference to the conditions existing at the end of the reporting period
5. when a counterparty has a choice of when an amount is paid, the liability is allocated to the earliest period in which the entity can be required to pay. For example, financial liabilities that an entity can be required to repay on demand (e.g., demand deposits) are included in the earliest time band
6. when an entity is committed to make amounts available in instalments, each instalment is allocated to the earliest period in which the entity can be required to pay. For example, an undrawn loan commitment is included in the time band containing the earliest date it can be drawn down
7. for issued financial guarantee contracts the maximum amount of the guarantee is allocated to the earliest period in which the guarantee could be called

Equity price risk (Where the Group is exposed to significant equity price risk at the end of the reporting period)
Equity price risk is the risk that the fair values of equity securities decrease as a result of changes in the levels of
equity indices and the value of individual securities. The Group is exposed to equity price risk arising from
individual equity investments classified as trading equity investments (note 28) and available-for-sale
investments (note 21) as at 31 December 2017. The Group’s listed investments are listed on the Hong Kong,
Shenzhen and Shanghai stock exchanges* and are valued at quoted market prices at the end of the reporting
period. (Where the conversion option is a derivative liability) The Group is also exposed to equity price risk
arising from changes in the price of the Company’s own shares to the extent that the Company’s own equity
investments underlie the fair values of derivatives. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group was exposed
to this risk through the conversion rights attached to the convertible bonds (note 34) issued by the Company.
The market equity indices for the following stock exchanges, at the close of business of the nearest trading day
in the year to the end of the reporting period, and their respective highest and lowest points during the year were
as follows:
31 December High/low 31 December High/low

Where there are significant particular concentrations of risk within the portfolio held, it may be more appropriate
to disclose information which is more specific. For example, highest/lowest point information or volatility in the
share price by industry sector (e.g., property and pharmaceutical) or by specific shareholding
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to every …% change in the fair values of the equity investments
and the conversion option of the convertible bonds, with all other variables held constant and before any impact
on tax, based on their carrying amounts at the end of the reporting period. (Add if the sensitivity analysis might
impact on impairment assessments) For the purpose of this analysis, for the available-for-sale equity
investments, the impact is deemed to be on the available-for-sale investment revaluation reserve and no account
is given for factors such as impairment which might impact the statement of profit or loss.
Where appropriate, consider disclosing a sensitivity analysis based on other specific risk variables reflecting
particular concentrations of risk, for which a change is considered reasonably possible, e.g., for a particular
industry sector and relevant indices
* Disclose information for a particular stock exchange only if the Group holds investments listed on that
exchange. Include additional exchanges as applicable

Financial risk management objectives and policies – capital management An entity shall disclose the following information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate the entity’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital: 1. qualitative information about its objectives, policies and processes for managing capital,
including: a. a description of what it manages as capital b. when an entity is subject to externally imposed capital requirements, the nature of those
requirements and how those requirements are incorporated into the management of capital
c. how it is meeting its objectives for managing capital 2. summary quantitative data about what it manages as capital. Some entities regard some
financial liabilities (e.g., some forms of subordinated debt) as part of capital. Other entities regard capital as excluding some components of equity (e.g., components arising from cash flow hedges)
3. any changes in (1) and (2) from the previous period 4. whether during the period it complied with any externally imposed capital requirements to which
it is subject 5. when the entity has not complied with such externally imposed capital requirements, the
consequences of such non-compliance The entity bases these disclosures on the information provided internally to key management personnel

An entity may manage capital in a number of ways and be subject to a number of different capital requirements. For example, a conglomerate may include entities that undertake insurance activities and banking activities and those entities may operate in several jurisdictions. When an aggregate disclosure of capital requirements and how capital is managed would not provide useful information or distorts a financial statement user’s understanding of an entity’s capital resources, the entity shall disclose separate information for each capital requirement to which the entity is subject

52. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Capital management
The primary objectives of the Group’s capital management are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern and to maintain healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise shareholders’
value.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions
and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may
adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group is
not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or
processes for managing capital during the years ended 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2016.
The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by the adjusted capital plus net debt.
The Group’s policy is to maintain the gearing ratio between …% and …%. Net debt includes interest-bearing
bank and other borrowings, an amount due to the ultimate holding company, loans from associates, trade, bills
and other payables and accruals, less cash and cash equivalents, and excludes the discontinued operation.
Capital includes convertible bonds and equity attributable to owners of the parent, less hedging reserve. The
gearing ratios as at the end of the reporting periods were as follows:

Note: There is no specific definition of the gearing ratio for the above disclosure. If an entity monitors its capital
using a gearing ratio, the entity should disclose the basis used. In the MD&A section of an annual report,
the directors of a listed issuer should comment on the gearing ratio and disclose the basis on which the
gearing ratio is computed (A16(32)(10) and A16(32.2)). The information disclosed above should be
consistent with that disclosed in the MD&A section.
154
Events after the reporting period If an entity receives information after the reporting period about conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, it shall update disclosures that relate to those conditions, in the light of the new information
HKAS10.19
If non-adjusting events after the reporting period are material, non-disclosure could influence the economic decisions that users make on the basis of the financial statements. Accordingly, an entity shall disclose the following for each material category of non-adjusting event after the reporting period: 1. the nature of the event 2. an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made

53. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
(a) On 2 February 2018, the Group entered into a sale and purchase agreement with an independent third
party to dispose of certain of its land and buildings situated in Hong Kong for a cash consideration of
HK$6,750,000. This transaction is scheduled to be completed on 20 July 2018 and is expected to result
in a gain on disposal before tax of approximately HK$1,500,000.
(b) On 12 February 2018, the Group entered into a sale and purchase agreement to dispose of its entire
interest in III Corporation, an associate as at 31 December 2017, to an independent third party for a total
consideration of HK$8,000,000. The gain on disposal before tax is expected to be approximately
HK$2,500,000.
(c) On 28 February 2018, 10,000,000 share options were granted to certain directors of the Company, as
further detailed in note 39 to the financial statements.
(d) On 3 March 2018, the Group acquired a 70% interest in MMM Limited, which is engaged in the
manufacture of industrial products. The Group has acquired MMM Limited to further expand its market
share of industrial products in the European Union. The purchase consideration of HK$7,000,000 for the
acquisition was in the form of cash and was paid on the acquisition date. The Group plans to measure
the non-controlling interest in MMM Limited at fair value.
Because the acquisition of MMM Limited was effected shortly before the date of approval of these
financial statements, it is not practicable to disclose further details about the acquisition.
54. COMPARATIVE AMOUNTS
The comparative statement of profit or loss has been re-presented as if the operation discontinued during the
current year had been discontinued at the beginning of the comparative period (note 11).
Or
As further explained in note 2.2 to the financial statements, due to the adoption of the revised HKFRSs during
the current year, the accounting treatment and presentation of certain items and balances in the financial
statements have been revised to comply with the new requirements. Accordingly, certain prior year
adjustments have been made, and certain comparative amounts have been reclassified and restated to
conform with the current year’s presentation and accounting treatment, and a third statement of financial
position as at 1 January 2016 has been presented.
155
Comparative amounts (continued) If the initial accounting for a business combination was incomplete by the end of last reporting period in which the combination occurred, during the measurement period (i.e., the period after the acquisition date during which an entity may adjust the provisional amounts recognised for a business combination), the acquirer shall recognise adjustments to the provisional amounts as if the accounting for the business combination had been completed at the acquisition date. Thus, an entity shall revise comparative information for prior periods presented in financial statements as needed, and disclose the nature and amount of any measurement period adjustments recognised during the reporting period

1. Despite section 380(4) of the Companies Ordinance, the holding company’s statement of financial position to be contained in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements for a financial year is not required to contain any notes
2. The statement of financial position of the Company must be in the format in which that statement would have been prepared if the Company had not been required to prepare any annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year

Appendix 2 – Additional illustration for note 2.3 “Issued but not yet effective Hong Kong Financial Reporting
Standards”
The key changes that are expected to significantly affect Hong Kong Listed Limited upon the adoption of the new and
revised HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective in the year ended 31 December 2017 are disclosed in
note 2.3. Other possible changes upon the adoption of the new and revised HKFRSs that have not been disclosed in note
2.3 are summarised as follows:
(a) Amendments to HKFRS 4 Applying HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments with HKFRS 4 Insurance Contracts
Amendments to HKFRS 4, issued in January 2017, address issues arising from the different effective dates of HKFRS 9 and the upcoming new insurance contracts standard. The amendments introduce two options that allow entities issuing contracts within the scope of HKFRS 4 for the adoption of HKFRS 9, notably a temporary exemption and an overlay approach. The temporary exemption enables entities whose activities are predominantly connected with insurance to defer the implementation date of HKFRS 9 until the earlier of the effective date of the new insurance contracts standard and annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021. The overlay approach allows entities applying HKFRS 9 from 2018 onwards to remove from profit or loss the effects arising from the adoption of HKFRS 9 and reclassify the amounts to other comprehensive income for designated financial assets. The Group expects to adopt the amendments from 1 January 2018. [Or The amendments are not applicable to the Group.] (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)
(b) HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments
(c) Hedge accounting
As HKFRS 9 does not change the general principles of how an entity accounts for effective hedges, applying the hedging requirements of HKFRS 9 will not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial statements. (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)
(c) Amendments to HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments
Amendments to HKFRS 9, issued in December 2017, allow financial assets with prepayment features that permit or require either the borrower or the lender to pay or receive reasonable compensation for the early termination of the contract to be measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The amendments clarify that a financial asset passes the “solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding” criterion regardless of the event or circumstance that causes the early termination of the contract and irrespective of which party pays or receives reasonable compensation for that early termination. The Group expects to adopt these amendments from 1 January 2019 and to apply the exemption from restating comparative information of prior periods. Any difference between the previous carrying amount and the adjusted carrying amount will be recognised in the opening balance of equity. The amendments do not apply to the Group as the Group does not have any debt instruments with prepayment features along with compensation for early termination. In addition, as clarified in the amendments to the basis for conclusions on HKFRS 9, the gain or loss arising on modification of a financial liability that does not result in derecognition (calculated by discounting the change in contractual cash flows at the original effective rate) is immediately recognised in profit or loss. As there is no specific relief on this clarification, this requirement shall be applied retrospectively . The Group’s current accounting policy is consistent with this clarification and therefore the adoption of the amendments is not expected to have any impact on the Group. (Or add any other expected impact upon initial application)
(d) Amendments under Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle
Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle, issued in March 2017, sets out amendments to HKFRS 1,
HKFRS 12 and HKAS 28. Except for the amendments to HKFRS 12 which have been adopted by the Group for the current year’s financial statements, the Group expects to adopt the amendments from 1 January 2018. None of the amendments are expected to have a significant financial impact on the Group. Details of the amendments to HKFRS 1 and HKAS 28 are as follows:
HKFRS 1 First-time Adoption of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards: Deletes the short-term exemptions for first-time adopters because the reliefs provided in the exemptions are no longer applicable. (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)
HKAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures: Clarifies that an entity that is a venture capital
organisation, or other qualifying entity, may elect, at initial recognition on an investment-by-investment basis, to measure its investments in associates and joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss. If an entity that is not itself an investment entity has an interest in an associate or joint venture that is an investment entity, the entity may elect to retain the fair value measurement applied by that investment entity associate or joint venture to the investment entity associate’s or joint venture’s interests in subsidiaries when applying the equity method. This election is made separately for each investment entity associate or joint venture, at the later of the date on which (i) the investment entity associate or joint venture is initially recognised; (ii) the associate or joint venture becomes an investment entity; and (iii) the investment entity associate or joint venture first becomes a parent. These amendments should be applied retrospectively. (Or add the expected impact upon initial application)

Independent auditor’s report
To the shareholders of Hong Kong Listed Limited
(Incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Hong Kong Listed Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the
“Group”) set out on pages 22 to 158, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017,
and the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated
statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the
consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of
the Group as at 31 December 2017, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for
the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong
Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the
disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing (“HKSAs”) issued by the HKICPA. Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the
consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the
HKICPA’s Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the
consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in
that context.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial
statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance
of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial
statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below,
provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
[Description of each key audit matter in accordance with HKSA 701] Other information included in the Annual Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Annual Report, other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial
statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the
work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Auditor’s report (continued)
The auditor’s report for a non-Hong Kong incorporated company should indicate the act, ordinance or other legislation in accordance with which the annual accounts have been drawn up and the authority or body whose auditing standards have been applied Commentary: For a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands or a PRC registered company, the first paragraph in the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements” section is as follows:
“Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Our report is made solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.”

(Incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)
Responsibilities of the directors for the consolidated financial statements
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a
true and fair view in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA and the disclosure requirements of the Hong
Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the
preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors of the Company are responsible for assessing the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors of the Company either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors of the Company are assisted by the Audit Committee in discharging their responsibilities for overseeing
the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
opinion. Our report is made solely to you, as a body, in accordance with section 90 of the Bermuda Companies Act
1981, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the
contents of this report.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Group’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on
the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future
events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements (continued)
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit
opinion.
We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the
audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe
these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in
extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Other employee benefits
Defined benefit plan
The Group operates a defined benefit pension plan which requires contributions to be made to a separately
administered fund. The benefits are unfunded. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is
determined using the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method.
Remeasurements arising from defined benefit pension plans, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect
of the asset ceiling (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) and the
return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are
recognised immediately in the consolidated statement of financial position with a corresponding debit or credit
to retained profits through other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements
are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss at the earlier of:
the date of the plan amendment or curtailment; and
the date that the Group recognises restructuring-related costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Group
recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation under “cost of sales” and “administrative
expenses” in the consolidated statement of profit or loss by function:
service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and
non-routine settlements
net interest expense or income
… . DEFINED BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS
The Group operates an unfunded defined benefit plan for all its qualifying employees in the United States.
Under the plan, the employees are entitled to retirement benefits at rates varying from …% to …% of their final
salaries on attainment of a retirement age of ….
The Group’s defined benefit plan is a final salary plan, which requires contributions to be made to a separately
administered fund. The plan has the legal form of a foundation and it is administrated by independent trustees
with the assets held separately from those of the Group. The trustees are responsible for the determination of
the investment strategy of the plan.
The trustees review the level of funding in the plan by the end of each reporting period. Such a review
includes the asset-liability matching strategy and investment risk management policy. This includes employing
the use of annuities and longevity swaps to manage the risks. The trustees decide the contribution based on
the results of the annual review. The investment portfolio targets a mix of …% in equity and property and …%
in debt instruments.
The plan is exposed to interest rate risk, the risk of changes in the life expectancy for pensioners and equity
market risk.
The most recent actuarial valuations of the plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligations
were carried out on 31 December 2017 by ABC Co., a member of the Actuarial Society of Hong Kong, using
the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method.
174
Appendix 5 – Illustrative disclosures for defined benefit obligations (continued)
An entity shall disclose: 1. information about the characteristics of its defined benefit plans, including:
a. the nature of the benefits provided by the plan (e.g., final salary defined benefit plan or contribution-based plan with guarantee)
b. a description of the regulatory framework in which the plan operates, for example the level of any minimum funding requirements, and any effect of the regulatory framework on the plan, such as the asset ceiling (see HKAS 19.64)
c. a description of any other entity’s responsibilities for the governance of the plan, for example responsibilities of trustees or of board members of the plan
2. a description of the risks to which the plan exposes the entity, focused on any unusual, entity-specific or plan-specific risks, and of any significant concentrations of risk. For example, if plan assets are invested primarily in one class of investments, e.g., property, the plan may expose the entity to a concentration of property market risk
3. a description of any plan amendments, curtailments and settlements
An entity shall disclose a description of any asset-liability matching strategies used by the plan or the entity, including the use of annuities and other techniques, such as longevity swaps, to manage risk A listed issuer shall include in addition to the information required under the relevant accounting standard in respect of pension schemes a brief outline of how contributions are calculated or benefits funded
In the case of defined benefit plans, an outline of the results of the most recent formal independent actuarial valuation (which should be as at a date not earlier than 3 years prior to the date of statement of financial position) or later formal independent review of the scheme on an ongoing basis. This should include disclosure of: 1. the name and qualifications of the actuary, the actuarial method used and a brief description of
the main actuarial assumptions 2. the market value of the scheme assets at the date of their valuation or review (unless the
assets are administered by an independent trustee in which case this information may be omitted)
3. the level of funding expressed in percentage terms 4. comments on any material surplus or deficiency (including quantification of the deficiency)
indicated by Appendix 16(26)(3)(c) of the Listing Rules
An entity shall disclose the principal actuarial assumptions used to determine the present value of the defined benefit obligation (see HKAS 19.76). Such disclosure shall be in absolute terms (for example, as an absolute percentage, and not just as a margin between different percentages or other variables). When an entity provides disclosures in total for a grouping of plans, it shall provide such disclosures in the form of weighted averages or relatively narrow ranges
An entity shall disclose: 1. a sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumption (as disclosed under HKAS
19.144) as of the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by changes in the relevant actuarial assumption that were reasonably possible at that date
2. the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses required by HKAS 19.145(a) and the limitations of those methods
3. changes from the previous period in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses, and the reasons for such changes

2017 2016
Discount rate (%) … …
Expected rate of future pension cost increases (%) … …
Expected rate of salary increases (%) … …
Others … …
The actuarial valuation showed that the market value of plan assets was HK$... (2016: HK$...) and that the
actuarial value of these assets represented …% of the benefits that had accrued to qualifying employees. The
deficiency of HK$... is expected to be cleared over the remaining service period of … years.

The sensitivity analysis above has been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on
defined benefit obligations as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the
reporting period. The sensitivity analysis is based on a change in a significant assumption, keeping all other
assumptions constant. The sensitivity analysis may not be representative of an actual change in the defined
benefit obligations as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another.

entity; and 2. another entity that is a related party because the same government has control or joint control
of, or significant influence over, both the reporting entity and the other entity
HKAS24.25 -(a) -(b)
If a reporting entity applies the exemption in HKAS 24.25, it shall disclose the following about the transactions and related outstanding balances referred to in HKAS 24.25: 1. the name of the government and the nature of its relationship with the reporting entity (i.e.,

Appendix 7 – Illustrative disclosures for transfers of financial assets
Transfers of financial assets
The disclosure requirements in HKFRS 7.42B-42H relating to transfers of financial assets supplement the other disclosure requirements of this HKFRS. An entity shall present the disclosures required by HKFRS 7.42B-42H in a single note in its financial statements. An entity shall provide the
required disclosures for all transferred financial assets that are not derecognised and for any continuing involvement in a transferred asset, existing at the reporting date, irrespective of when the related transfer transaction occurred. For the purposes of applying the disclosure requirements in those paragraphs, an entity transfers all or a part of a financial asset (the transferred financial asset), if, and only if, it either: 1. transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of that financial asset; or 2. retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of that financial asset, but assumes a
contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients in an arrangement
An entity shall disclose information that enables users of its financial statements: 1. to understand the relationship between transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in
their entirety and the associated liabilities; and 2. to evaluate the nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s continuing involvement in
derecognised financial assets
For the purposes of applying the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 7.42E-42H, an entity has continuing involvement in a transferred financial asset if, as part of the transfer, the entity retains any of the contractual rights or obligations inherent in the transferred financial asset or obtains any new contractual rights or obligations relating to the transferred financial asset. For the purposes of applying the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 7.42E-42H, the following do not constitute continuing involvement: 1. normal representations and warranties relating to fraudulent transfer and concepts of
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealings that could invalidate a transfer as a result of legal action
2. forward, option and other contracts to reacquire the transferred financial asset for which the contract price (or exercise price) is the fair value of the transferred financial asset; or
3. an arrangement whereby an entity retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of a financial asset but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more entities and the conditions in HKAS 39.19(a)-(c) are met
Transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety
An entity may have transferred financial assets in such a way that part or all of the transferred financial assets do not qualify for derecognition. To meet the objectives set out in paragraph HKFRS 7.42B(a), the entity shall disclose at each reporting date for each class of transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety: 1. the nature of the transferred assets 2. the nature of the risks and rewards of ownership to which the entity is exposed 3. a description of the nature of the relationship between the transferred assets and the associated
liabilities, including restrictions arising from the transfer on the reporting entity’s use of the transferred assets
4. when the counterparty (counterparties) to the associated liabilities has (have) recourse only to the transferred assets, a schedule that sets out the fair value of the transferred assets, the fair value of the associated liabilities and the net position (the difference between the fair value of the transferred assets and the associated liabilities)
5. when the entity continues to recognise all of the transferred assets, the carrying amounts of the transferred assets and the associated liabilities
6. when the entity continues to recognise the assets to the extent of its continuing involvement (see HKAS 39.20(c)(ii) and HKAS 39.30), the total carrying amount of the original assets before the transfer, the carrying amount of the assets that the entity continues to recognise, and the carrying amount of the associated liabilities

Appendix 7 – Illustrative disclosures for transfers of financial assets (continued)
… . TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
Transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety
(a) At 31 December 2017, the Group endorsed certain bills receivable accepted by banks in Mainland China
(the "Endorsed Bills") with a carrying amount of RMB… (equivalent to HK$...) (2016: RMB…, equivalent to
HK$...) to certain of its suppliers in order to settle the trade payables due to such suppliers (the
“Endorsement”). In the opinion of the directors, the Group has retained the substantial risks and rewards,
which include default risks relating to such Endorsed Bills, and accordingly, it continued to recognise the full
carrying amounts of the Endorsed Bills and the associated trade payables settled. Subsequent to the
Endorsement, the Group did not retain any rights on the use of the Endorsed Bills, including the sale,
transfer or pledge of the Endorsed Bills to any other third parties. The aggregate carrying amount of the
trade payables settled by the Endorsed Bills during the year to which the suppliers have recourse was
RMB… (equivalent to HK$...) (2016: RMB…, equivalent to HK$...) as at 31 December 2017.
(b) As part of its normal business, the Group entered into a trade receivable factoring arrangement (the
“Arrangement”) and transferred certain trade receivables to a bank. Under the Arrangement, the Group may
be required to reimburse the bank for loss of interest if any trade debtors have late payment up to 180 days.
The Group is not exposed to default risks of the trade debtors after the transfer. Subsequent to the transfer,
the Group did not retain any rights on the use of the trade receivables, including the sale, transfer or pledge
of the trade receivables to any other third parties. The original carrying value of the trade receivables
transferred under the Arrangement that have not been settled as at 31 December 2017 was HK$… (2016:
HK$...). The carrying amount of the assets that the Group continued to recognise as at 31 December 2017
was HK$... (2016: HK$...) and that of the associated liabilities as at 31 December 2017 was HK$... (2016:
HK$...).
Transferred financial assets that are derecognised in their entirety
At 31 December 2017, … Limited, a subsidiary of the Group, endorsed certain bills receivable accepted by banks
in Mainland China (the “Derecognised Bills”) to certain of its suppliers in order to settle the trade payables due to
such suppliers with a carrying amount in aggregate of RMB… (equivalent to HK$...). The Derecognised Bills had
a maturity of one to six months at the end of the reporting period. In accordance with the Law of Negotiable
Instruments in the PRC, the holders of the Derecognised Bills have a right of recourse against the Group if the
PRC banks default (the “Continuing Involvement”). In the opinion of the directors, the Group has transferred
substantially all risks and rewards relating to the Derecognised Bills. Accordingly, it has derecognised the full
carrying amounts of the Derecognised Bills and the associated trade payables. The maximum exposure to loss
from the Group's Continuing Involvement in the Derecognised Bills and the undiscounted cash flows to
repurchase these Derecognised Bills is equal to their carrying amounts. In the opinion of the directors, the fair
values of the Group’s Continuing Involvement in the Derecognised Bills are not significant.
During the year ended 31 December 2017, the Group has not recognised any gain or loss on the date of transfer
of the Derecognised Bills. No gains or losses were recognised from the Continuing Involvement, both during the
year or cumulatively. The endorsement has been made evenly throughout the year.

2. the fair value of the assets and liabilities that represent the entity’s continuing involvement in the derecognised financial assets
3. the amount that best represents the entity’s maximum exposure to loss from its continuing involvement in the derecognised financial assets, and information showing how the maximum exposure to loss is determined
4. the undiscounted cash outflows that would or may be required to repurchase derecognised financial assets (e.g. the strike price in an option agreement) or other amounts payable to the transferee in respect of the transferred assets. If the cash outflow is variable then the amount disclosed should be based on the conditions that exist at each reporting date
5. a maturity analysis of the undiscounted cash outflows that would or may be required to repurchase the derecognised financial assets or other amounts payable to the transferee in respect of the transferred assets, showing the remaining contractual maturities of the entity’s continuing involvement

An entity may aggregate the information required by HKFRS 7.42E in respect of a particular asset if the entity has more than one type of continuing involvement in that derecognised financial asset, and report it under one type of continuing involvement In addition, an entity shall disclose for each type of continuing involvement: 1. the gain or loss recognised at the date of transfer of the assets 2. income and expenses recognised, both in the reporting period and cumulatively, from the
entity’s continuing involvement in the derecognised financial assets (e.g., fair value changes in derivative instruments)
3. if the total amount of proceeds from transfer activity (that qualifies for derecognition) in a reporting period is not evenly distributed throughout the reporting period (e.g., if a substantial proportion of the total amount of transfer activity takes place in the closing days of a reporting period): a. when the greatest transfer activity took place within that reporting period (e.g., the last five
days before the end of the reporting period) b. the amount (e.g., related gains or losses) recognised from transfer activity in that part of
the reporting period, and c. the total amount of proceeds from transfer activity in that part of the reporting period
An entity shall provide this information for each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is presented Supplementary information
An entity shall disclose any additional information that it considers necessary to meet the disclosure objectives in HKFRS 7.42B Commentary: 1. An entity need not provide the disclosures required by the amendments to HKFRS 7
